First Week of Alexion Pharmaceuticals May 2016 Options Trading
Investors in Alexion Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASD: ALXN) saw new options begin trading this week, for the May 2016 expiration. One of the key data points that goes into the price an option buyer is willing to pay, is the time value, so with 238 days until expiration the newly trading contracts represent a potential opportunity for sellers of puts or calls to achieve a higher premium than would be available for the contracts with a closer expiration. At Stock Options Channel, our YieldBoost formula has looked up and down the ALXN options chain for the new May 2016 contracts and identified one put and one call contract of particular interest.
