That's not quite correct - BRA is when a moviestock is priced higher than current box office *and* has no potential to earn any more money

Posted by: RogerMore on Sep 01, 21:06 in response to Imperfect's post BRA/Anti-Arb = priced higher than current box office

For example, let's say a moviestock priced at $5 opens in limited release and earns $0.1 million on its first weekend.

If the distributor decides to keep the movie playing in theatres, it is not BRA because it could potentially earn that $5 million over the next eleven weeks before the stock delists.

If the distributor decides to pull the movie from theatres, then the movieĀ has no potential to earn any more money at the box office and the stock would be arb.
