Dumb options question
I'm looking at MSFT options right now. MSFT is trading at $28.00.
For some options, I noticed that the strike price is 15, while the options price is 12 (total = 27). This is a hypothetical example. Why is this lower than the stock price. What's to stop me from immediately exercising the option and making $1 on each option?
Thanks.
bro the premium for $15 option is over $14
but for 17.5 those premiums must be wrong/delayed?
Edit: yeah those premiums don't make any sense a $17 call should never be cheaper than a $19 call all other variables even. SirTradsAlot's got it, low volume and no spread quoted
