Don't understand GE options. Someone please kindly explain

Discussion in 'Options' started by freewilly, Mar 1, 2019.

  1. GE now price is $10.18, March 01 $11 put option price is $0.40. Why is that? should not be at least $0.82 for $11 put?

    Thanks,

    Are you looking at the regular options for 100 shares of just GE or one with another delivery?

    GE had a spin off this week and holders were allocated GE (new) and WAB. Not sure how the old options worked out with that.
