What does it Mean? A profit situation arising from pricing inefficiencies between securities. Investors identify the arbitrage situation through mathematical modeling techniques.
 
Investopedia Says... Statistical arbitrage is not without risk; it depends heavily on the ability of market prices to return to a historical or predicted normal.
