ccco - what's going on?, page-17

Pisces, I've posted this before, but I'll post it again for your benefit.

There's a stock option simulator at the following link http://www.optionanimation.com/
which may help the enthusiastic understand more about options versus head shares.

It can be a complex issue, but for those who understand maths and statistics, then options can be (and often are) a far more profitable way to trade or invest in stocks, compared to solely buying the equivalent head shares.

An extract from the website .
To value an investment is to evaluate its probability distribution.
This principle applies to every type of investment, not just stocks and options but also to bonds, commodities, collateralized debt obligations and other derivative securities.
The easiest way to understand these fundamental principles of modern financial theory is to gain an understanding of how probability distributions determine the value of stock options.

For me, CCCO is a far better mathematical proposition than CCC over the long term.
