Allergan (AGN) Offering Possible 12.36% Return Over the Next 22 Calendar Days

Allergan's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Allergan is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $242.50 short put and a strike $237.50 long put offers a potential 12.36% return on risk over the next 22 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $242.50 by expiration.

Shares of Valeant Pharmaceuticals International (VRX) spiked yesterday on speculation regarding a possible debt-to-equity swap by the troubled drug maker. Wells Fargo analyst David Maris weighed in on the notion today, arguing that even if a swap does happen, it does not repair poor business trends or the increasingly unlikelihood that Valeant can deliver the strong earnings growth promised by consensus forecasts.
