Abstract
We prove the sharp bound for the expected spread upon opinions of experts, who have access to different information sources represented by different σ-fields. Using symmetrization argument and direct combinatorial optimization we derive an explicit optimizer. Our results may turn out to be helpful not only for probabilists, but also for statisticians and economists.
