-
It has to be valuable
-
because fifty-fifty chance the stock price is going to go up
-
and so you have a good chance of making money on it.
-
So, it's going to be worth a lot
-
more than this one was down here because we're at the money.
-
Any little jostle upward is going to put it in the money.
-
There's a big chance that this will become in the money,
-
so it has real value;
-
whereas, down here, the option doesn't have much value
-
because it would take a big price move to put it in the money.
-
Then what about up here? Even when they're in the money
-
they're worth more than intrinsic value.
