    Nope. Not unless your bulk load is querying the table first. Stats do not get created or updated unless they are needed to generate an execution plan.

    So bulk inserts don't need a execution plan? i thought every query needs it

    We are selecting from source and bulk-inserting to this table. Should we disable those options on source?

    You are selecting from the source before the bulk insert, is there a concern that the stats will be out of date before the bulk insert? If not, then you shouldn't have to worry about turning those options off.
