Повний текст джерелаThe aim of the present study is to analyze the cross hedge operation for calves in the BM&F future markets. The basis risk of these operations during the contract maturity weeks were calculated, as well as the optimal hedge ratios and the respective effectiveness. The period considered was September, 1995 to February, 2001, and the regions were chosen according to their importance in commercialization of bovine cattle: Araçatuba (SP), Bauru/Marília (SP), São José do Rio Preto (SP), Presidente Prudente (SP), Três Lagoas (MG), Triângulo Mineiro (MG), Campo Grande (MS) and Noroeste do Paraná. For the sake of comparisons, the same analyses were carried for the fed cattle hedge operations, in the same regions. The average value of the basis and the basis risk of fed cattle hedge and calf cross hedge was calculated for 58 future contracts, in the last week of contract life, and econometric analyses were performed. The main results arising from the preceding analyses can be pointed out: i) average basis value and basis risk of calf were higher than the values of fed cattle in all regions; ii) the basis standard deviation for fed cattle was 80,67% lower than for calf; iii) the regions comprised by IBG, calculated by the CEPEA/FEALQ, showed lower fed cattle basis risk compared to the other regions under study; iv) the calf basis risk in the regions studied did not present statistically significant differences. In a second stage, the study analyzed the optimal hedge ratio and the related effectiveness of own and cross hedge, according to the methodology proposed by Myers & Thompson (1989). The estimated hedge ratio was high in both cases, between 37% and 49% for the optimal hedge ratio and 58% to 63% for the cross hedge. The own hedge figures mean a 50% reduction in price risk when hedging at the optimal ratio, a value that drops consistently to about 1,5% for all regions when the cross hedge is considered. The main conclusion of the study is that the BM&F fed cattle future markets are quite effective as a price risk reduction strategy for the own hedge operations, but lack effectiveness in this sense for the calves cross hedge. Market agents trying to use the calf price and the exchange relation between fed cattle and calf prices for cattle selling decisions should not rely on this mechanism for price risk reductions.

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: A unique data set consisting of economists' expectations on key economic indicators was examined within the context of the controversial normal backwardation theory of Keynes. The economists' expectations were regarded as the expected future spot price and the relationship between them and the corresponding futures contracts was analysed. The respective economic indicators were: i) the yield from aparastatal Bond, ii) the yield from Government Bonds, iii) the rate of the 90 day Banker's Acceptance (BA) Deposit Rate and iv) the Rand/Dollar (R/$) Exchange Rate for the past seven years, i.e. 1995 to 2001. The accuracy of the economists' predictions was tested both on a visual basis and the relationship between the expected values and the futures prices was plotted in a graphical format. A nonparametric statistical procedure was used to determine whether the economists' expectations were of any value. To put it differently, the question being posed is: do these economists, as a group, possess some superior forecasting skills? Two different conclusions were reached from the analysis: First conclusion: by accepting the normal backwardation theory, it implies that the contango theory also holds. Therefore, when analysing the data set visually - depending on which theory it supports - the futures price must trade consistently below or above the expected future spot price. For this particular analysis the yield of the bond, and not its price, was the important factor. In most cases the plotted relationships between the expected values and the futures prices were found to support the contango theory and, to a lesser extent, the normal backwardation theory. Hence, speculators were, in order to make profits, predominately sellers of futures contracts. Second conclusion: the strongest conclusion, however, follows from the statistical tests conducted on the expected values. It was found that economists do possess some superior forecasting skills and if they had used their predictions and had taken the corresponding market positions, they would have been consistent winners in the futures market. Their reward would be mainly for their ability to forecast eventual spot prices and, to a lesser extent, for their risk bearing. It was impossible to link the two conclusions to confirm the normal backwardation theory, for the particular South African data set. The evidence is thus consistent with the hypothesis that the futures price is an unbiased estimate of the expected future spot price.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 'n Unieke datastel, bestaande uit ekonome se vooruitsigte van kern ekonomiese aanwysers, is ondersoek binne die konteks van die omstrede normale terugwaardasie-teorie (d.i. "normal backwardation theory") van Keynes. Die ekonome se vooruitsigte is aanvaar as die verwagte toekomstige kontantprys en die verhouding hiertussen en die ooreenstemmende termynpryse is ontleed. Die onderskeie ekonomiese aanwysers was: i) die opbrengs op 'n Semi-Staatseffek, ii) die opbrengs op Staatseffekte, iii) die koers van die negentig-dae-Bankaksepte (BA) Depositokoers en iv) die Rand/Dollar (R/$) Wisselkoers oor die afgelope sewe jaar, d.w.s. 1995 tot 2001. Die akkuraatheid van die ekonome se vooruitskattings is op 'n visuele basis vergelyk, en die verhouding tussen die verwagte prys en die termynpryse is in grafiese formaat gekarteer. 'n Nie-parametriese statistiese prosedure is gebruik om vas te stel of hierdie ekonome se vooruitsigte van enige waarde was. Anders gestel, die vraag is: beskik hierdie ekonome as 'n groep oor sekere superieure vooruitskattingsvaardighede? Die volgende twee afsonderlike gevolgtrekkings is geformuleer: Eerste gevolgtrekking: deur die normale terugwaardasie-teorie te aanvaar, impliseer dit dat die contango-teorie (d.i, "contango theory") ook geldig is. Dus, wanneer die datastel visueel getoets word - afhangende van watter teorie dit ondersteun - moet die termynprys konsekwent bo of onder die verwagte toekomstige kontantprys verhandel. Vir hierdie bepaalde analise was die opbrengs van die staatseffek die belangrike faktor en nié die prys daarvan nie. In die meeste gevalle het die gekarteerde verhouding tussen die verwagte prys en die termynprys getoon dat dit die contango-teorie ondersteun het en, in 'n mindere mate, die normale terugwaardasie-teorie. Derhalwe was spekulante, ten einde wins te maak, oorwegend die verkopers van termynkontrakte. Tweede gevolgtrekking: die belangrikste gevolgtrekking volg egter uit die statistiese toetse wat uitgevoer is op die verwagte pryse. Daar is bevind dat ekonome wel oor superieure vooruitskattingsvaardighede beskik en dat, indien hulle hul vooruitskattings gebruik en die ooreenstemmende markposisies ingeneem het, hulle konsekwent wenners in die termynmark sou gewees het. Hulle vergoedings sou hoofsaaklik gewees het vir hulle vermoë om uiteindelike kontantpryse te voorspel en, in 'n mindere mate, vir hulle risiko-blootstelling. Dit was onmoontlik om hierdie twee vergelykings met mekaar te verbind om sodoende die normale terugwaardasie-teorie te onderskryf vir die betrokke Suid-Afrikaanse datastel. Die bewyslewering is dus konsekwent met die hipotese dat die termynprys 'n onsydige skatting van die verwagte toekomstige kontantprys is.

Повний текст джерелаThe oil market is arguably the most influential commodity market in the world, in that it has an effect on all economic variables in one way or another. Due to oil’s central role in the world economy, it is of the utmost importance that all parts of society strive to increase the understanding of how the market works. This study has analysed the efficiency of the oil market in the period 1986 to 2008, with the efficient market hypothesis as the theoretical framework. Data on the prices of spot and futures contracts on crude and heating oil has been collected from the New York Mercantile Exchange, and tested for cointegration, with the underlying assumption being that cointegration is a sign of weak form efficiency. The results implies that the spot and futures prices have not been cointegrated during the studied period, and thus we conclude that the oil market has not behaved in accordance with the weak form of the efficient market hypothesis.

This thesis analyzes the relationship between the physical and paper shipping markets. The main objective is to find if one market leads the other by a specific time period so that market players can take advantage from that. Three different methods were used to analyze this relationship. The first is a rolling average technique to smooth the strong fluctuations of the market and plot the relevant graphs. From there we can have a first look on whether there is a lead-lag relationship between the two markets. The second method was the cross-correlation function which allows us to time shift back and forth the two time series in order to compare the relevant correlation coefficients. In the third method, a Vector Error Correction model was created for each pair of time series in order to test the influence of the one series to the other. Finally, we present a brief comparison between the volatility of the freight rates and the trading value of freight futures so we can judge if the spot market became more volatile with the growth of trading of freight futures.

This paper attempts to understand the price dynamics of the North American natural gas market through a statistical survey that includes an analysis of the variables influencing the price and volatility of this energy market. The analysis develops a theoretical model for the conditional reactions to weekly natural gas inventory reports, and develops an extended theory of errors in natural gas inventory estimates. The central objective of this thesis is to answer the fundamental question of whether the volatility of natural gas futures are conditional on the season or the level of the natural gas in inventory and how accurate are analysts at forecasting the inventory level. Commodity prices are volatile, and volatility itself varies over time. I examine the role of volatility in shortrun natural gas market dynamics and the determinants of error in inventory estimates leading to this variance. I develop a structural model that equates the conditional volatility response to the error made in analyst forecasts, inherently relating analyst sentiment to volatility and price discovery. I find that in the extremes of the inventory cycle (i.e., near peak injection/withdraw) that variance is particularly strong, and significantly higher than non-announcement days. The high announcement day volatility reflects larger price changes. With statistical significance, we can conclude that when the natural gas market is under-supplied, the near-term Henry Hub Natural Gas futures contract becomes nearly twice as volatile than in an oversupplied market. Furthemore, analysts are more prone to make errors in their estimates of weekly inventory levels around these same time periods. Natural gas is an essential natural resource and is used in myriad aspects of the global economy and society. As we look to develop more sustainable energy policies, North America's abundant clean-burning natural gas will hold an essential role in helping us to secure our future energy independence. An ability to understand the factors influencing it is supply and demand, and thus price, are and will continue to be essential.

O mercado internacional tem sido o foco principal do estudo do convenience yield dos contratos de commodities agrícolas. Em geral, abordagens por meio de modelos de equilíbrio vêm sendo utilizadas para modelar o convenience yield. Esta dissertação propõe de forma pioneira, utilizar modelos de fatores, originalmente propostos por Nelson e Siegel (1987) para a taxa de juros, com o intuito de modelar uma proxy do convenience yield dos contratos futuros de boi gordo negociados na BMEF-Bovespa. Este trabalho também apresenta uma síntese dos modelos propostos na literatura para ativos financeiros e agropecuários bem como a estrutura de negociação dos contratos futuros de commodities agrícolas na BMEF.
International Market has been the principal focus on the convenience yield study of the agricultural commodities contracts. In general, approaches using equilibrium models have been used to model the convenience yield. This paper proposes, for the first, using factor models, originally proposed by Nelson and Siegel (1987) for the in- terest rate, in order to model the a proxy of convenience yield of live cattle futures contracts traded on the Bovespa-BMEF. This work also presents a summary of the models proposed in the literature for financial assets and commodities as well as the structure of futures trading in agricultural commodities for BMEF.

Повний текст джерелаThe survey examines selected papers from the international finance literature and from the volatility literature with a focus on the theoretical and empirical relationship between first and second unconditional and conditional moments of domestic and international asset returns. It then specifically proposes several areas for investigation related to international finance topics. The first essay investigates the importance of asymmetric volatility when computing the risk premium of international assets. The results indicate that conditional second moment asymmetry is significant and time-varying. They also show that, if the price of risk is time-varying, the world market and foreign exchange risk premia estimated without allowing for time-varying asymmetry are less consistent with the data. Furthermore, they imply that asymmetry is more pronounced when the business condition is such that investors require higher compensation to bear risk.
In the second essay we start from the consideration that financial decision makers often consider the information in currency option valuations when making assessments about future exchange rates. The purpose of this essay is then to systematically assess the quality of option based volatility, interval and density forecasts. We use a unique dataset consisting of over 10 years of daily data on over-the-counter currency option prices. We find that the implied volatilities explain a large share of the variation in realized volatility. Finally, we find that wide-range interval and density forecasts are often misspecified whereas narrow-range interval forecasts are well specified.
In the third essay we examine whether the information contained in various measures of correlation among exchange rates can be used to assess future currency co-movement. We compare option-implied correlation forecasts from a dataset consisting of over 10 years of daily data on over-the-counter currency option prices to a set of return-based correlation measures and assess the relative quality of the correlation forecasts. We find that while the predictive power of implied correlation is not always superior to that of returns based correlations measures, it tends to provide the most consistent results across currencies. Predictions that use both implied and returns-based correlations generate the highest adjusted R2's, explaining up to 42 per cent of the realized correlations.

Повний текст джерелаO risco associado à produção de carne de bovino, está sempre dependente de cenários não passíveis de controlo humano, como é o exemplo das alterações climáticas que causam fenómenos cada vez mais drásticos e imprevisíveis. Para além destes fenómenos climáticos, os produtores estão, nalguns casos, mal preparados para lidar com a gestão do risco e são muitas vezes afetados por variáveis financeiras e económicas que tornam as explorações inviáveis. Para reverter esta realidade, de forma a auxiliar os produtores, pretendeu-se neste trabalho avaliar o interesse que os produtores demonstram relativamente à utilização de contratos futuros e contratos forward como estratégias de cobertura de risco no mercado bovino europeu, e ainda determinar os fatores que influenciam este interesse. De forma a responder a esta questão de investigação, caracterizou-se o setor bovino europeu e português para identificação dos principiais condicionalismos que têm impacto negativo nas explorações, em especial na resiliência socioeconómica das explorações. Além disto, uma análise orientada para esta estratégia de cobertura de risco e a sua aplicação em países terceiros (Austrália, Brasil, Chile e EUA), foi elaborada de forma a caracterizar o funcionamento de mercados futuros de bovinos nestes países, bem como os benefícios e as desvantagens decorrentes da sua aplicação para os seus produtores. Foram inquiridos 101 produtores de bovinos de carne de diferentes países com o objetivo de perceber as principais diferenças associadas à relação entre as características produtivas e a gestão do risco existente nas explorações de bovinos de carne. O nível de recetividade para a utilização destes contratos também foi objeto de estudo. Foi possível classificar os produtores em dois grupos diferentes, os produtores Gestores Qualificados e os produtores Gestores Desinteressados. Concluiu-se ainda que existem diferenças entre produtores portugueses e de outros países europeus, no âmbito da produção de bovinos de carne e na utilização de mecanismos de gestão de risco. Não foi possível concluir que fatores determinam o interesse dos produtores europeus pela utilização de contratos futuros e forward.
ABSTRACT - Futures and forwards contracts as a hedging strategy in the European Beef Cattle market - Risk associated with beef production always depends on circumstances that lack human control, such as climate change that causes increasingly drastic and unpredictable occurrences. In addition to these climatic events, producers are in some cases poorly prepared to deal with risk management and are often affected by financial and economic variables that make farms unviable. To reverse this reality, in order to help producers, this paper aimed to analyse the interest that producers have regarding the use of futures and forward contracts as hedging strategies in the European beef market, and also to determine the factors that influence this interest. In order to answer this research question, the European and Portuguese bovine sector was characterized to identify the main constraints that have a negative impact on farms, especially on the socio-economic resilience of farms. Furthermore, an analysis oriented towards this hedging strategy and its application in third countries (Australia, Brazil, Chile and USA), was elaborated in order to characterize the functioning of bovine futures markets in these countries, as well as the benefits and disadvantages arising from its application for their producers. A total of 101 beef cattle producers from different countries were surveyed with the purpose of understanding the main differences associated with the relationship between production characteristics and risk management on beef cattle farms. The receptiveness level for the use of these contracts was also studied. It was possible to classify producers into two different groups, the Qualified Manager producers and the Uninterested Manager producers. It was also concluded that there are differences between Portuguese producers and those from other European countries, in the scope of beef cattle production and in the use of risk management mechanisms. It was not possible to conclude what factors determine the interest of European producers in the use of futures and forward contracts.

Several attempts of negotiation of future contracts and price indexes of beef cattle in Argentina and in Uruguay were frustrated along the years. The derivatives issued failed in a short period of time due to lack of liquidity. That scenery and other particularities of the live cattle spot market turned the administration of risk of prices into a problem for the economical agents of the meat chain. In this context, the following question emerged: the cross hedging with future contracts of Brazilian live cattle in the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&FBovespa) is effective for the administration of risk of prices of beef steers in the Argentinian and Uruguayan spot market? In an effort to answer this question, it was proposed to verify if it is possible to mitigate the risk of the price volatility of the spot market of Argentinian and Uruguayan beef steers through of cross hedging in the futures market for Brazilian live cattle in the BM&FBovespa. For this, it was used static and dynamic models to estimate of the optimal cross hedge ratio and effectiveness of risk mitigation. The results of the hypothesis test of risk mitigating allow to assure that there are strong empirical evidences of effectiveness of the futures market of Brazilian live cattle in protection against the prices risk of the spot market of Argentinian and Uruguayan steers. Complementarily, it was analyzed the hypothesis of the futures market efficiency. The results present empirical evidence of a stochastic relationship common in long-term between spot and futures prices, and efficiency in predicting short-term price, which suggest that the future contracts of Brazilian live cattle in the BM&FBovespa allow adequate hedge of price for the Argentinian and Uruguayan steers in spot market.
Na Argentina e no Uruguai, diversas tentativas de negociação de contratos futuros e de índice de preços de carne bovina foram frustradas ao longo dos anos, tendo os derivativos lançados fracassado, em um curto espaço de tempo, por falta de liquidez. Esse cenário, somado a outras particularidades do mercado físico da carne bovina, torna o gerenciamento de risco de preços um problema para os agentes econômicos que atuam nessa cadeia produtiva. Nesse contexto, emergiu a seguinte questão: a proteção cruzada com contratos futuros de boi gordo brasileiro da Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros de São Paulo (BM&FBovespa) é efetiva para a administração do risco de preços dos novilhos de corte no mercado a vista argentino e uruguaio? Com a finalidade de responder a essa questão, propôs-se a verificar se é possível mitigar o risco da volatilidade de preços no mercado a vista dos novilhos de corte argentinos e uruguaios por meio do cross hedging no mercado futuro do boi gordo brasileiro na BM&FBovespa. Para tanto, foram utilizados modelos estáticos e dinâmicos de estimação da razão de cross hedge ótima e efetividade em mitigação do risco. Os resultados do teste de hipóteses de mitigação do risco permitiram assegurar que são fortes as evidências de efetividade do mercado futuro do boi gordo brasileiro na proteção contra o risco de preços do mercado a vista dos novilhos argentinos e uruguaios. Complementarmente, verificou-se a hipótese de eficiência do mercado futuro. Os resultados apresentaram evidências de um relacionamento estocástico comum no longo prazo entre os preços a vista e futuros, e de eficiência na predição dos preços no curto prazo, o que sugere que os contratos futuros de boi gordo brasileiro da BM&FBovespa permitem uma trava adequada de cotação-preço para os novilhos argentinos e uruguaios no mercado a vista.

Повний текст джерелаThe specification of commodity market efficiency and the impact of investors behavior on commodity prices are important to analyze in terms of profit-making, trading strategies, and risk management. Moreover, given the high occurrence of market extreme changes, it is important to analyze commodity prices in a time- frequency perspective and to consider all market conditions. This thesis attempt to cover recent features in commodity markets efficiency using recent empirical methods and including the latest developments in commodity economics and financial econometrics. In this thesis, we prove that commodity market efficiency is sensitive to different market conditions and to different time-frequencies. The results depend on the nature of the commodity, its storage process, its dynamics, and volatilities. The first chapter the dependence between commodity spot and futures prices during positive and negative extreme periods. The second chapter explicit the behavioral finance theory in commodity markets and focus on the impact of market and investor sentiment on energy futures prices, taking into consideration the short, medium, and long-term. The third chapter is a comparative study between the American and the European natural gas markets; We explore the pricing and informational efficiencies in a time-frequency domain. We confirm the different reactions of commodities to market conditions and we conclude that precious metals are the most efficient, whereas the natural gas market is the most sensitive. We also confirm the bidirectional and unidirectional causalities between the energy futures process and several sentiment proxies. Finally, we conclude that the American natural gas market is more efficient compared to the European natural gas market

Futures and options with TAIEX as underlying asset is the products with the largest trading volume in TAIEX futures market. This study selects TAIEX Futures, Mini-TAIEX Futures and TAIEX Options as the objects and investigates into predictive power of the large investors’ position toward the futures market price. By analyzing investors who trade in only futures market, those who trade in only options market or those who trade in both futures and options markets, this study conducts further investigation into whether there is any difference in predictive power on futures price because of their different trading behaviors and the different information they hold. The prices of futures and options include a lot of market information. This study combines the investors’ positions of futures and options. The result shows that large investors have significant predictive power on the futures market price. No matter whether investors trade in only futures market, only in options market or in both futures and options market, their positions all have significantly positive correlation with the futures return on the next day; compared with large investors, other investors’ positions all have significantly negative correlation with the futures return on the next day. If we only consider the comparatively informative open part, the result shows that the positions of the large investors who trade only in futures market and those who trade in both markets have more significant predictive power on futures return compared with the context of open and close positions simultaneously. The results also show that investors who trade in both markets have better predictive power on the change of futures price and their positions have comparatively higher correlation with the futures return on the next day.

Gold has been a popular investment for people throughout history and today, it has been used as currency and a hedge against inflation. It has been recommended that investors hold between 10% and 25% of their investments in gold depending on the outlook of the economy. An economical method of investing in gold is to access the gold futures market. Henceforth this study has attempted to forecast gold prices based on historical prices and volumes in the gold futures market. As yet quantitative research has proved inadequate in providing a model to successfully trade or invest in the gold futures market. An alternative method of approaching this gap in the research has been provided by this qualitative study. A comprehensive literature review was conducted that highlighted important previous research on the gold futures market. This provided the study with a base to build on. In-depth interviews with experts in the gold futures industry were than used to provide insight into macroeconomic factors and technical analysis techniques to help forecast price and volume in the gold futures market. After the in-depth interviews were documented, over 32 years of price and volume gold futures data was displayed and analyzed using quantitative methods. Quantitative analysis in this research area was once again ineffective in providing guidance to forecast the gold futures market. Technical analysis was then used to demonstrate its effectiveness in forecasting prices and volumes in the gold futures market. When used in combination with the in-depth interview findings, and III literature review, it was found that the gold futures market could be forecasted successful, as long as risk management was adopted and a trading plan existed. The implications for this study are that price and volume in the gold futures market can be forecasted interpreted using the right techniques as mentioned above. A quantitative model on its own however will not be effective in forecasting the gold futures market. Macroeconomic variables in combination with technical analysis and risk management are the most suitable method to forecast price and volume in the gold futures market. The technical analysis section of this study can also be used in an array of financial trading instruments; however fundamentals and macroeconomic factors will differ greatly from the gold futures market.

This study, applying a threshold vector error correction (TVECM) model, examines whether gold spot and futures prices are cointegrated relationships. By using this methodology we are able to evaluate the degree and dynamics of transaction costs resulting from various market imperfections. Traction costs may lead to the existence of neutral band for futures market speculation in which profitable trading opportunities are impossible. We use data set that comprises daily data of spot and futures prices for gold market. The principal source is DataStream, covering the period from 16th Oct. 2004 to 23rd Dec. 2010 that is 1622 observations in total. In the process of proving that, first we examined whether the unit root of the two variables of gold futures and spot was in the steady state. The result came like this: the both sequences over by first differenced were I(1). And then, it showed long-run equilibrium between gold futures and spot prices by Johansen Cointegration test . Furthermore, this paper employs the threshold VECM to investigate the dynamic price relationship between gold futures and spot. The results provided by the SupLM test statistics reject the null hypothesis of no threshold effect. Whereas the Wald test diagnostics, thus the null hypothesis of linearity in error correction terms is rejected. Finally, we found that gold futures and spot prices were out of long-run equilibrium whether is in symmetrical or asymmetrical model. Thus, gold spot prices will adjust the short-run price to reverse back to the long-run equilibrium.

Abstract In spite of the similarity of forward and futures contracts, they are quite different in many aspects, and the most controversial issue is the marking-to-market of futures contracts. Cox, Ingersoll, and Ross (1981) incorporate the marking-to-market effect, and derive a series of propositions with respect to the relationship between forward and futures prices. This paper investigates the price differential between forward and futures contracts in Foreign exchange markets for the period January 2001-march 2004. The currencies examined include Australian dollar, British pound, Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese Yen, and Swiss Franc. This paper test empirically (1) if there are significant differences between forward and futures prices, and (2) if the net interest payouts arising from resettlement could explain the variations of price differences for the CIR model in two different assumptions. Empirical results indicate that, in foreign exchange markets, differences between forward and futures prices are insignificant. CIR model is helpful in explaining the variations of forward-futures price differences if cashflow of the net interest payout in the future time is known. On the contrary, the model could not account for it if only using the past net interest payout.

The financial market plays a very important role in a nation’s economy. It not only helps the formation of capital, but also provides a screening mechanism between the supply and the demand for capital. A general rule in examining the health of a financial market is to test the three aspects of the market. They are the efficiency, the perfection, and the completeness. The availability of the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE) Indexes futures started in July 1998 is believed to have enhanced the completeness of Taiwan’s financial market. However, in observing the prices of TSE Index futures, we found a persistent gap between the theoretical (fair) and the market closing prices. This gap (bias) is large and varying. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the behavior of the bias and determine the information content of the bias. Data on TSE Index futures during the period from July 1998 to March 2000 are examined by using ACF, cointegration, one-sample T-test, K-S test, factor analysis, and multiple regression. Results of the study suggest the following: First, Perfect market assumption can not explain the observed behavior of Taiwan’s futures market reasonably. Second, psychological factors affect the bias differently in different periods. Third, the bias returned to their normal range in the long term. And lastly, the most influential factors on the bias are the capital cost, the uncertainty, and the international stock market conduction effect.

During the past three years, the transaction volumes of Taiwan Stock Exchange Index Futures has been risen dramatically and the market liquidity has also been increased. Both the institutional investors and individual investors’ need for speculation and for hedging against risk was increased subsequently. The trader’s willingness to participate in the futures market was also raised. This study attempts to investigate the impact of investors’net buying or selling in Taiwan’s futures market on the rate of the return and fluctuations of the index futures. The data resources are obtained from the institutional investors and individuals’ daily volumes of net selling and buying which were provided by Taiwan Futures Exchange. The sample period starts from Jan. 1, 2002 to Dec. 31, 2004. This investigation first uses the Augmented Dickey Fuller test to examine whether there is an unit-root phenomenon in time-series data, then employs the GARCH model, co-integrity examination , Granger’s Causality test and variance decomposition test to explore whether there exists a leading and lagging correlation of the investment activities between the institutional investors and individual investors. In addition, this study investigates the impact of net buying or selling by the institutional investors on the rate of return and fluctuation of stock index futures. This works also examines the impact of institutional investors’ net buying or selling on the spot market. The experimental results are summarized as follows: (1) According to the futures’ prices and volumes data from 2002 to 2004, this study finds that Taiwanese futures market has weak efficiency and the investors are hard to obtain the excessive rate of return by predicting the prices of futures in advance based on the history of previous transaction volumes or prices; (2) The transaction information based on investment and trust company and international investment company cannot explain the prices or fluctuations of the futures. That is, it cannot provide useful information to the investors; (3) The information of transaction behaviors from security brokerage firms can help the investors to earn some profit. However, it’s hard to explain the fluctuations of futures prices. (4) According to Granger’s causality test, the findings show that international investors and investment and trust companies are mutually affected by each other. However, the impact of the transactions of the internationally institutional investors on those of the investment and trust companies is significantly higher than the transactions of investment and trust company on those of the internationally institutional investors. Moreover, the investment and trust companies led the security brokerage firms and the security brokerage firms led the internationally institutional investors. (5) This work finds that there is a significant relationship between the net buying and selling of security brokerage firms and the stock index futures. Therefore, the larger the variations of net buying and selling of the security brokerage firms are, the greater the fluctuations of the stock index futures are. Subsequently, the fluctuations of the futures market affect that of the spot market.

Повний текст джерелаThis study empirically investigates the existence of the Samuelson Hypothesis in South African markets. The Samuelson Hypothesis states that the volatility of futures contracts increase as the expiration of the contracts approaches. It is an important phenomenon to account for when setting margins, creating hedging strategies and valuing options on futures. The study utilizes daily closing prices of agricultural and non-agricultural futures contracts for a period varying from 2002 to 2015. In total, eleven contracts were examined over this period, yet only one (White Maize) consistently shows support for the Samuelson Hypothesis. The Negative Covariance and State Variable Hypothesis were tested, but could not provide an alternative explanation for the lack of relationship between the time to maturity and volatility of futures contracts.
