If it is not monopoly, it still can be monopolistic competitive market. How

fringe firms?
The seller accepts different prices from customers? You said earlier that
the firm sets price to maximize profit. It is confusing.
You do not do anything. Demand will always drop as you increase price except
for Giffen goods. There are many models of price discrimination. You |

have to assume a single price first. The price elasticity of demand is
already known when you have demand curve functions. So firms are actually

As for the demand curve, firms may face a straight line single demand, a
kinked demand curve, or multiple demand curves for different kinds of
consumers or different scenarios. If you want to study the influence of Ed

making predictions on future movement of market prices. These quants are
typically in buyside firms such as the quantitative hedge funds. The
financial instruments that they are interested in tend to be highly liquid
and exchange traded (such as stocks and futures). For these instruments,
there are known market prices and the goal here is to take advantage of

How do I understand option risk-neutral valuation? Why it works at all? Why
option pricing does not depends on underlying asset's expected return? I can
see it from binomial model and BS derivation, but intuitively, how can this
be understood by layman's words?

guess he means stock price S_{0}. But I don't think this price itself really |

L****a 发帖数: 572 | 6 Put-call parity relationship means the call and put price for the
same strike and expiration is tied to a fixed relationship. Therefore,
if people think stock should go up, and they buy call to push up
call price, the corresponding put price should go up as well by
Put-call parity arbitrage. Therefore, in this case, only based on
the option prices, we can only say implied volatility is up, and
that's it.
However, from options with different strikes and expirations, it's

s********t 发帖数: 31 | 7 Just have this question in mind recently.
It seems interesting to me:
1. From B-S equation, stock price growth rate always > risk-free rate due to
the volatility of Stock. Since GDP growth rate is close to risk-free rate
(roughly speaking), investing in stock has return higher than the GDP growth
rate.
2. However, it 1 is true, over long time the stock price rises too fast over
economy rate, and the GDP growth rate can not support the stock price.
Eventually, the stock price will plumb (i.e., |

can we price the call option with $100 striking price?
what if tomorrow could be 110(99% chance), 100(0.5%) or 0(0.5%)
can we price the option? |

s*******u 发帖数: 35 | 9 pcasnik, if today's price is 100, you are right. but here the price is 110
to start from. So we actually have p1=1, p2=p3=0. Of course, this stock
does not make too much sense. But purely from pricing point of view, this
means we can price it. |

a******u 发帖数: 66 | 10 as in Mark's interview book Question 2.4:
Suppose two assets in a BS world have the same volatility. If one of the
assets undergoes downward jumps at
random times, how will this affect option prices?
他的解释是option price的图像是convex, so when the price drops, the
difference between option price and
hedging stocks becomes bigger. Then他的结论是所以又downward jump的option贵。
我怎么觉得结论应该是反过来阿?
换个角度,如果stock降价,不应该option降价么?
大家帮忙看看?谢谢 |

1) mean reversion process actually reduce the volatility , therefor option

2) in the risk neutral world, the drift of stock become rdt no matter what

option price doesn't change.

interest rate of EUR is 5%,
interest rate of USD is 1%.
The forward price of EUR/USD (in one year), by no arbitrage argument, is
then given by 1.2*e^{1%-5%}, which is less than 1.2
However, it is generally believed that raising interest rate will translate
into a rise of the value of underlying currecy. In reality, people have a
greater interest in holding high-interest-rate currencies. The demand then
will drive the price of the currency higher. So, if the interest r... 阅读全帖 |

Implying forward from European options is possible because a put-call pair (
with the same strike) can replicate a forward. So in that case forward is
easily implied by option prices.
I was wondering if there is a similar thing for American options.
But it seems like the answer is NO.
The best thing you can do with American options in this regard is to make
something like "Amrican Forward", i.e. the contract to buy the underlyer at

price of swaption. We can also use the forward swap measure (see book "Term-
