Investors in Vanguard International Equity Index Funds - Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets Exchange Traded Fund (VWO) saw new options begin trading today, for the July 17th expiration. One of the key data points that goes into the price an option buyer is willing to pay, is the time value, so with 93 days until expiration the newly trading contracts represent a potential opportunity for sellers of puts or calls to achieve a higher premium than would be available for the contracts with a closer expiration..
