    Ambiguity is used for the reader to draw his or her own conclusions, even if a meaning was meant to be implied by the author.

The volatility smile may be explained by investor demand for options of the same expiration date but disparate strike prices. In-the-money and out-of-the-money options are usually more desired by investors than at-the-money options. As the price…
