Option-Implied Currency Risk Premia
We use cross-sectional information on the prices of G10 currency options to calibrate a non-Gaussian model of pricing kernel dynamics and construct estimates of conditional currency risk premia. We find that the mean historical returns to short dollar and carry factors (HMLFX ) are statistically indistinguishable from their option-implied counterparts, which are free from peso problems. Skewnes...
متن کاملThe term structure of equity option implied volatility
This paper investigates the relationship between the slope of the implied volatility (IV) term structure and future option returns. In Fama-Macbeth regressions we demonstrate that implied volatility slopes are positively correlated with future returns on short-term at-the-month straddles. A strategy that buys straddles with high IV slopes and short sells straddles with low IV slopes returns sev...
متن کاملMeasures of Risk Equity
This article covers measures of fairness or equity for situations involving risk, as represented with a probability distribution over outcomes, which often include adverse health or safety outcomes. For an introduction to fairness, the reader is referred to Keller et al. [1]. Such risk equity measures may be used in societal utility functions to identify preferred policies from the perspective ...
متن کاملOption-Implied Term Structures
The illiquidity of long-maturity options has made it difficult to study the term structures of option spanning portfolios. This paper proposes a new estimation and inference framework for these option-implied term structures that addresses long-maturity illiquidity. By building a sieve estimator around the risk-neutral valuation equation, the framework theoretically justifies (fattailed) extrap...
متن کاملOption-Implied Correlations and the Price of Correlation Risk∗
We provide evidence that the risk of changes in equity correlations is priced, using data on S&P100 options and options on all the stocks in the index. We develop a model for equity prices with priced correlation risk, which generates (i) option-implied correlations that exceed realized correlations, (ii) a zero difference between implied and realized equity variances, (iii) endogenous stochast...
