还是2009年notes上的,关于远期交易市场的
Which of the following statements regarding equity forward contracts is least accurate?
A. Equity forwards may be settled in cash.
B. Dividends are never included in index forwards.
C. A short position in an equity forward could not hedge the risk of a purchase of that equity in the future.
答案是B,这个我理解。但是C仿佛也是一种错误的说法吧,为什么股票远期交易中short position就不能通过卖股票规避风险呢?答案的解释就一句话:A long position is used to reduce the price risk of an expected future purchase. 对于这个解释,我也看不是很懂。希望大侠不吝赐教。谢谢!
多谢指教。我想我是没有弄清楚long position 和short position的确切含义。比如我现在又十手中石油,我预计它3个月后会下跌10%,但是由于种种原因我现在还不想卖,于是可以作一个equity forward contract,3个月之后仍旧可以按照现在的价格卖出。另外一个人预期3个月之后中石油会涨10%,但是他现在没有钱,于是愿意与我做这个合约。这种情况,我是不是short position呢?我这种行为可以不可以认为是hedge risk 呢?
