03.09 23:47 UpdatedFair Value Reasoning:
While reports (March 6, 2026) indicate the DOJ has formed a task force to 'consider' charges against Cuban officials and Sec. of State Rubio is hawkish, the leap from 'gathering evidence' to 'formal indictment' of a head of state typically requires a lengthy legal timeline. With only 3 months until expiration, and the high diplomatic/legal bar for indicting a sitting president, the current price of 21.5c slightly overestimates the speed of the judicial process. Fair value is pegged at ~18c, acknowledging the immense political pressure but questioning the feasibility of a formal charge by June.

Exotics
Indicting a sitting head of state (especially of an adversary like Cuba) is rare but not unprecedented (e.g., Maduro of Venezuela). Given the long-standing tension and potential accusations regarding terrorism support or drug trafficking, it is a moderately exotic but plausible scenario.
Movers
March 6, 2026 - March 9, 2026, the price of Option_'Yes' maintained a high level (21.5c) or likely appreciated, driven by reports (e.g., WaPo) that the US DOJ has formed a task force to examine potential federal charges against Cuban government officials, a move hailed by Rep. María Elvira Salazar as 'promising news'.
