slight ARB

Posted by: bbb101 on Aug 20, 11:25 in response to Buckee's post My thoughts on the presidential options...

There are 538 electoral votes so if you bought or shorted both you'd spend $106,000 commision and would guaratee a $160,000 gain. So yes, you are correct, a sure profit but a long lock-up of $10.7 million for $54,000 (ROI 0.54%).

Shorting both wouldn't be ARB. {nm} Antibody Aug 20, 11:28

Correct. One will make money, not a ton compared to investment. The other comes somewhat close to breaking even.... if both are bought long. {nm} Buckee Aug 20, 11:46

since 1992: EC has been roughly 330-208, so about 2.4M profit at that gap, ok i guess. islndr Aug 20, 11:36

True. Only if one wins by a landslide can real money be made... if you played them correctly. {nm} Buckee Aug 20, 11:49

A candidate needs 270 electoral votes to win so one of them by default would have to be worth $100,000 more than IPO price TheWeekendWarrior Aug 20, 11:51
