Yahoo! Finance Options Analysis Tool. Any merit using it?

Do any investors follow option prices using the Yahoo Options Analysis Tool? Are the projected prices they forecast accurate? I am particularly interested in First Solar (FSLR) March $175.00 strike call option. The tool shows there is a chance FSLR shares could touch $175.00. Any input on thie accuracy of this investment tool?

<<>>

Yes, if you learn how to use it correctly. You will probably find you can get the same information elsewhere.

<<>>

Certainly some do, but I have not.

<<>>

The do give probabilities based on a lognormal distribution. I consider that very different than a forecast of the price.

<<>>

The coulumn headed "prob" is 2.62% for that option. I did not, however, see anything that said that was the chance of the stock reaching that price. If you look in their glossary the only thing beginning with "prob" is:

Probability of Profit
Probability of Profit is the probability that the predicted stock price falls within the option trade's profit zones. The predicted stock price distribution is computed by projecting the stock price randomly into the future using the SV. The prediction stops at the expiration of the earlist expiring option leg.

That defnition is ambiguous. It could mean that the stock goes over $175 + the option premium, or it could simply mean that the option premium goes up. If the stock went to $170 per share Monday the option premium would go up without the stock reaching $175.

<<>>

The math is not that complicated, so I assume the figures are correct. The analysis tool is provided by Optionetics, a company that does actually understand options. Of course, the tool assumes the future prices will follow a lognormal distribution, that the volatility will not change, and a number of other things that are not always true. Still those assumptions are used by almost all professional option traders, so they probably are the best assumptions available.

Procurement and Financing of Motorways in Europe $159.24 This volume raises many challenging and controversial issues surrounding motorway procurement and finance in Europe. A somewhat surprising outcome is that a general appraisal bias can be identified in the following sense: Experts from countries which have introduced concession schemes for managing and financing of their motorways are very critical of these schemes, stressing their shortcomings and caveats. Some even conclude that public management under a regime of welfare maximisation would be desirable as a sustainable option. Experts from countries which have been sticking to public procurement and tax finance of motorways strongly attack the inefficiency of public planning regimes and the general tendency to allocate the revenues from special transport related taxes to the public budget, eventually spending them on other purposes rather than transport. A typical feature of the latter regime seems to be the chronic lack of funds for infrastructure investment. Although a single ideal country concept for motorway procurement and finance obviously cannot be identified, every paper gives some insights into possible future improvements. Therefore, beyond the rich documentation of national solutions it is the perspective on workable future concepts which makes the book a valuable guide through the jungle of manifold options for public/private partnerships. This book is a selection of papers presented to the international conference Highways: Costs and Regulation in Europe, held in Bergamo on the 26th 27th of November 2004. The Conference was organised by the University of Bergamo, and sponsored by the European Investment Bank.

Financing Rural Health Care $189.42 Straub and Walzer have assembled a wellbalanced collection of articles by experts in the field of health care, beginning with two which explore the changing populations and economies of rural areas. Successive chapters explain issues such as recent developments in home patient care, costsaving innovations, and the pros and cons of rural HMOs. Of special note are those essays which project the future of health care and provide alternative approaches to health care services such as the viability of the rural hospital in the future; progressive nonhospital options; and ways to maximize resources in the years to come. Since this detailed work investigates the major facets of the struggling rural health care system, it will prove valuable not only to health care officials, but also to health care and social science faculty, and to state and local officials whose understanding of health care issues directly affects their policy making.
