Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because implied volatility is essential for pricing options, analyzing derivative strategies and measuring risk in investment portfolios containing derivatives, understanding variations in implied volatility also becomes vital. Aside from a secular trend, volatility clustering and calendar effects are two commonly occurring sources of such variation. To analyze volatility clusters in India's implied volatility index (Nifty VIX) daily closing levels for the Nifty VIX were gathered covering trading days from January 2010 through January 2014. ARIMA and GARCH models applied to the de-trended Nifty VIX time series were found of limited use for describing this data with its episodic clustering and periodic events. However an alternative modeling approach using Fourier analysis and Butterworth filters successfully split the time series into two logical parts, one with both clusters and periodic behavior and one with near-white noise. The likely origins of major clusters in India's Nifty implied volatility index appeared linked to important global financial events external to India during the study period thereby supporting evidence of temporal spillover into the India market. The half-lives of implied volatility clusters were measured and compared with those in the US market. The full range of Nifty VIX behavior for the study period was seen to consist of four distinct elements: trend, periodic events, clusters of volatility and noise. When combined these elements provide an empirical model able to produce successful forecasts for 60-day-ahead periods.

Download or read book The Empirical Investigation of Relationship Between Return Volume Volatility in Indian Stock Market written by Gurmeet Singh and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper investigates the empirical relationship between return, volume and volatility dynamics of stock market by using data of the NIFTY index of NSE during the period from Jan 2007 to March 2014. The volatility in the Indian stock market exhibits characteristics similar to those found earlier in many of the major developed and emerging stock markets. It is shown that ARCH family models outperform the conventional OLS models. We find that, the TARCH model is better fit, when we compare the GARCH, EGARCH and TARCH models, on the basis of AIC and SC criteria. Causality from volatility to volume can be seen as some evidence that new information arrival might follow a sequential rather than a simultaneous process. Moreover, in the GARCH model, ARCH and GARCH effects remain significant, which highlights the inefficiency in the market. In addition, EGARCH and TARCH models indicate the presence of leverage effect and positive impact of volatility on returns. Finally, the findings of granger causality test records the evidence of one way causality from volatility to trading volume and from return to volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study was to analyze and model periodic behavior observed in India's Nifty VIX Index and to seek the origins of these previously unreported calendar variations. Implied volatility and its variations are important to understand as the pricing of many financial assets and derivatives depend upon this variable. A novel modeling approach to this task uses Fourier analysis for the first time in the literature of implied volatility and calendar effect modeling. For this purpose daily closing levels for the Nifty VIX Index were gathered covering trading days from 2010 through January 2014. Time series of VIX levels after removing a trendline were tested for normality, stationarity and autocorrelation. Nifty index and Nifty VIX data were also tested for two-way Granger Causality. Detrended Nifty VIX levels were Fourier analyzed to determine primary Fourier frequencies contributing to VIX periodic behavior. A Fourier model of VIX movements was constructed using four primary frequencies from the Fourier power spectrum. This model shows surprising accuracy in identifying the temporal location of VIX peaks and troughs. The probable origin of one recurring VIX calendar frequency is traced to India's earnings release cycle.

Download or read book Indian Stock Market written by Gourishankar S. Hiremath and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is one of the major emerging economies of the world and has witnessed tremendous economic growth over the last decades. The reforms in the financial sector were introduced to infuse energy and vibrancy into the process of economic growth. The Indian stock market now has the largest number of listed companies in the world. The phenomenal growth of the Indian equity market and its growing importance in the economy is indicated by the extent of market capitalization and the increasing integration of the Indian economy with the global economy. Various schools of thought explain the behaviour of stock returns. The Efficient Market Theory is the most important theory of the School of Neoclassical Finance based on rational expectation and no-trade argument. The book investigates the growth and efficiency of the Indian stock market in the theoretical framework of the Efficiency Market Hypothesis (EMH). The main objective of the present study is to examine the returns behaviour in the Indian equity market in the changed market environment. A detailed and rigorous analysis, made with the help of the sophisticated time series econometric models, is one of the key elements of this volume. The analysis empirically tests the random walk hypothesis and focuses on issues like nonlinear dynamics, structural breaks and long memory. It uses new and disaggregated data on recent reforms and changes in the market microstructure. The data on various indices including sectoral indices help in measuring the relative efficiency of the market and understanding how liquidity and market capitalization affect the efficiency of the market.

This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the long memory characteristics in the volatility of the Indian stock market, the Indian exchange rates and the Indian banking sector. This book also reviews the chain of approaches to estimate the long memory parameter. The long memory characteristics of the financial time series are widely studied and have implications for various economics and finance theories. The most important financial implication is related to the violation of the weak-form of market efficiency which encourages the traders, investors and portfolio managers to develop models for making predictions and to construct and implement speculative trading and investment strategies. In an efficient market, the price of an asset should follow a random walk process in which the price change is unaffected by ist lagged price changes and has no memory.

This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effectiveness of the monetary policy transmission mechanism in open economies could be impaired if interest rates are driven primarily by global factors, especially during periods of large capital inflows. The main objective of this paper is to assess whether this is true for emerging Asia’s economies. Using a dynamic factor model and a structural vector auto-regression model, we show that long-term interest rates in Asia are indeed predominantly driven by global factors. However, monetary policy transmission mechanism remains effective in the region, as it operates predominantly through short-term interest rates. Nevertheless, the monetary transmission mechanism, though effective, is somewhat weaker in Asia during the periods of surges in capital inflows.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Generally, the fund managers prefer to include Nifty-listed securities in their portfolio, because they are the leading stocks of the nation, using these companies constructed 11 sectors of stock indices. On the whole, the analysis of 12-year data starting from April 2002 to March 2014 established two phases of sectoral indices of Nifty; they are pre and post-recession periods in the light of sub-prime financial crisis that cropped up across the globe during 2008-09. As this study revealed sector-wise return exposure under different economic conditions, it helps investors to diversify their funds to various sectors which give average return to their portfolios and at lower risk element. However, this study is helped in understanding the risk-return relationship between different sectors of Nifty, as well as ARCH and GARCH models to estimate the volatility in the near future in great detail. The direction of the Nifty index is mainly determined by a few sectors in the long run like Bank, Pharma and Capital Goods indices. Finally, this study is enabled the investors to understand the risk and returns of sectoral indices of Nifty to make effective portfolio decisions under different economic conditions to sustain the portfolio with the same objectives till its tenure. This book is useful for Portfolio Managers, Fund Managers, Investment Managers and Policy makers, Academicians, Research scholars; Post graduate students and other commerce and Management students those working on Returns and volatility of stock market indices and securities."

Download or read book The Volatility Smile written by Emanuel Derman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Volatility Smile The Black-Scholes-Merton option model was the greatest innovation of 20th century finance, and remains the most widely applied theory in all of finance. Despite this success, the model is fundamentally at odds with the observed behavior of option markets: a graph of implied volatilities against strike will typically display a curve or skew, which practitioners refer to as the smile, and which the model cannot explain. Option valuation is not a solved problem, and the past forty years have witnessed an abundance of new models that try to reconcile theory with markets. The Volatility Smile presents a unified treatment of the Black-Scholes-Merton model and the more advanced models that have replaced it. It is also a book about the principles of financial valuation and how to apply them. Celebrated author and quant Emanuel Derman and Michael B. Miller explain not just the mathematics but the ideas behind the models. By examining the foundations, the implementation, and the pros and cons of various models, and by carefully exploring their derivations and their assumptions, readers will learn not only how to handle the volatility smile but how to evaluate and build their own financial models. Topics covered include: The principles of valuation Static and dynamic replication The Black-Scholes-Merton model Hedging strategies Transaction costs The behavior of the volatility smile Implied distributions Local volatility models Stochastic volatility models Jump-diffusion models The first half of the book, Chapters 1 through 13, can serve as a standalone textbook for a course on option valuation and the Black-Scholes-Merton model, presenting the principles of financial modeling, several derivations of the model, and a detailed discussion of how it is used in practice. The second half focuses on the behavior of the volatility smile, and, in conjunction with the first half, can be used for as the basis for a more advanced course.
