ARB means the price of the movie is lower than actual gross. That means, it makes money for you. Most people seem to think it stands ...

Arbitrage, which in real stock/commodity market means there's a discrepancy between inherent value of a stock versus what the stock is trading at. Sometimes this can happen when the stock/commodity trades on multiple markets.  You will also hear the term BRA, which means a stock is trading higher than its gross. (BRA is ARB reversed)

When it is ARB, and the difference is higher than commission, you want to long the stock and if it is BRA, you want to short it.

QUTET and NFAWY are ARB with double digit percentages. Check it out. elchan Feb 23, 07:13

Or, simply: the movie has already made more money than its stock price reflects, so your profit is guaranteed. {nm} jjmarino Feb 23, 21:03
