Book The Impact of Derivatives Hedging on Stock Market

Download or read book The Impact of Derivatives Hedging on Stock Market written by San-Lin Chung and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the hedging impact on the underlying stock market using a comprehensive dataset of covered warrants traded in the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE). Since TWSE requires the warrant issuers to conduct dynamic hedging over the life of warrants, we can estimate the number of shares bought or sold for rebalancing the hedging portfolio and measure its impact. We find significant positive abnormal returns and trading volumes before the announcement day of warrants issuance, suggesting that issuers establish their hedging portfolios before the announcement day. The magnitude of the price effect is positively related to the size of the hedging portfolio. Moreover, there is a significantly positive relationship between stock return volatility and the price elasticity of hedging demand (defined as the percentage of shares needed for rebalancing hedge portfolio when the underlying stock price changes 1%). Finally, we also observe significantly negative price effect to the underlying stock before (after) the expiration date for call warrants that are expired out-of-the-money (in-the-money). For call warrants expired in-the-money, the negative price impact is due to the fact that warrants traded in TWSE are cash settlement when exercised, and thus the issuers have to liquidate the hedging portfolio after expiration, which results in selling pressure on the underlying stock.

  • Release : 2012-07-26
  • ISBN : 1136530398
  • Pages : 394 pages

Download or read book The Rice Crisis written by David Dawe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent escalation of world food prices – particularly for cereals - prompted mass public indignation and demonstrations in many countries, from the price of tortilla flour in Mexico to that of rice in the Philippines and pasta in Italy. The crisis has important implications for future government trade and food security policies, as countries re-evaluate their reliance on potentially more volatile world markets to augment domestic supplies of staple foods. This book examines how government policies caused and responded to soaring world prices in the particular case of rice, which is the world's most important source of calories for the poor. Comparable case studies of policy reactions in different countries, principally across Asia, but also including the USA, provide the understanding necessary to evaluate the impact of trade policy on the food security of poor farmers and consumers. They also provide important insights into the concerns of developing countries that are relevant for future international trade negotiations in key agricultural commodities. As a result, more appropriate policies can be put in place to ensure more stable food supplies in the future. Published with the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Organization of the United Nations

Book Shock Waves

  • Author : Stephane Hallegatte
  • Publisher : World Bank Publications
  • Release : 2015-11-23
  • ISBN : 1464806748
  • Pages : 227 pages

Download or read book Shock Waves written by Stephane Hallegatte and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ending poverty and stabilizing climate change will be two unprecedented global achievements and two major steps toward sustainable development. But the two objectives cannot be considered in isolation: they need to be jointly tackled through an integrated strategy. This report brings together those two objectives and explores how they can more easily be achieved if considered together. It examines the potential impact of climate change and climate policies on poverty reduction. It also provides guidance on how to create a “win-win†? situation so that climate change policies contribute to poverty reduction and poverty-reduction policies contribute to climate change mitigation and resilience building. The key finding of the report is that climate change represents a significant obstacle to the sustained eradication of poverty, but future impacts on poverty are determined by policy choices: rapid, inclusive, and climate-informed development can prevent most short-term impacts whereas immediate pro-poor, emissions-reduction policies can drastically limit long-term ones.

It focuses on four infrastructure systems that are essential to economic activity and people’s well-being: power systems, including the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity; water and sanitation—especially water utilities; transport systems—multiple modes such as road, rail, waterway, and airports, and multiple scales, including urban transit and rural access; and telecommunications, including telephone and Internet connections.
