FREE INKLE IDEA FOR WEEK OF 9/8
If you buy ten shares of the L.A. Dodgers to reach the 2008 MLB playoffs ,
it will cost you $392.70.
Then sell ten shares of the L.A Dodgers to win the NL West in 2008 . You will receive $400.84.
Why do all of this for a return of $8.14? Because you are guaranteed a positive return, and if the Dodgers lose the division but earn a wildcard slot, you earn inkles on both legs of the trade. Is this likely? No. Will you earn free inkles regardless? Yes.
DISCLAIMER: I hold a position in this trade. I am sharing it with you because I have hit my self-imposed position limit.
The spread has widened since I posted this idea. If you think the Dodgers will win the NL West, why not buy L.A. Dodgers will make the 2008 MLB playoffs? It’s cheaper and includes a free option that pays out for a wildcard berth. The odds of a wildcard berth are slim, but the market is assigning a negative value.
Dodgers have clinched.
Which team will be NL West Division Champions in 2008?
