LDkeynote: Probability of future prices Soruce: Options as a Strategic Investment. by Lawrence G. McMillan 1980 Edition page 403 A formula using cumulative normal distribution, natural log, etc... describes how a future price of a stock can be estimated using: (1)Volatility. (2)and days into the future.
Based on the closing price of BRCM on 4/17/03 of 16.60 the probability of BRCM closing at 21.40 or above on Friday was only 7.30%
Translation: BRCM has move up too far to soon.IMHO.
