Mark asked:

If I short them at 5.93 and then wait for HP to buy my shares @ 5.70 will I make a $0.23 profit per share? Why is it trading above the offer?

Alex G asked:

Could you provide concrete examples? Also, let’s say a stock trades on the NYSE and TSX (BNS for example), and the prices are apart by about .5%, could you perform arbitrage in this case, or am I getting the wrong idea? I mean how do you buy a stock or commodity and sell it on a whole different market where the stock/futures contract is not registered? Thanks a lot

Intel / McAfee – $48/sh – Arbitrage the Deal?

admin — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 17:31:12 +0000

Alby asked:

Today it appears that Intel is buying Mcafee for $48.00/sh. The market has run up Mcafee’s stock to $47.60/sh until the deal is approved by shareholders. Does it make sense to leverage that deal by arbitraging the deal?

What I mean, is should I buy Mcafee stock @ $47.60/sh and sit on it, so I can collect a free profit of $0.40/cents a share? I calculated that if I put up $200,000 and used 20x margin on that deal, I could put $4,000,000 down, get 84,033/sh of Mcafee. When the deal closes at $48.00/sh, I’d walk way with $33,613 of profit. Not a bad chunk of change for doing absolutely nothing. Right?
