Abstract
The Markov inequality is a classical nice result in statistics that serves to demonstrate other important results as the Chebyshev inequality and the weak law of large numbers, and that has useful applications in the real world, when the random variable is unspecified, to know an upper bound for the probability that an variable differs from its expectation. However, the Markov inequality has one main flaw: its validity is limited to nonnegative random variables. In the very short note, we propose an extension of the Markov inequality to any non specified random variable. This result is completely new.
