Abstract
Using the method of symmetrization we compare the price of an American option on an index or spread to the solution of a parabolic variational inequality in one spatial variable. The comparison is made for a class of diffusion operators with time and state dependent coefficients and might be of particular value when only partial information is available about the volatilities, correlations and drifts of the various underlying assets.
