The stock price is $51, the continuously compounded risk-free rate (all maturities) is 6% and the time to maturity is one year. A dividend of $1 is expected in six months. The fair price of a one-year European put option on the stock with a strike price of $50 is thus $3.06. If the put currently sells for $5, what should an investor do?
