A higher volatility stock, with the same expected return of 7% but with annual volatility of 20%, would indicate returns from approximately negative 33% to positive 47% most of the time (19 times out of 20, or 95%). These estimates assume a normal distribution; in reality stock price movements are found to be leptokurtotic (fat-tailed).
The volatilities in the market for 90 days are 18% and for 180 days 16.6%. In our notation we have , = 18% and , = 16.6% (treating a year as 360 days). We want to find the forward volatility for the period starting with day 91 and ending with day 180.
Implied volatility, a forward-looking and subjective measure, differs from historical volatility because the latter is calculated from known past returns of a security. To understand where implied volatility stands in terms of the underlying, implied volatility rank is used to understand its implied volatility from a one-year high and low IV.
Calculating fair value: By comparing implied volatility with historical volatility, you can determine whether an option is fairly priced. If IV is significantly higher than HV, it may suggest that ...
To calculate 'impact of prices' the formula is: Impact of prices = option delta × price move; so if the price moves $100 and the option's delta is 0.05% then the 'impact of prices' is $0.05. To generalize, then, for example to yield curves: Impact of prices = position sensitivity × move in the variable in question
When such volatility has a randomness of its own—often described by a different equation driven by a different W—the model above is called a stochastic volatility model. And when such volatility is merely a function of the current underlying asset level S t and of time t, we have a local volatility model. The local volatility model is a ...
Current ratio vs. quick ratio vs. debt-to-equity Other measures of liquidity and solvency that are similar to the current ratio might be more useful, depending on the situation.
For the Chinese A-share market, the formula delivered annualized returns of 10.9% versus 1.4% for the CSI-300 Index for the period August 2008 to August 2018, with lower volatility. [14] In India, it significantly outperformed the S&P BSE 100 Index by 12.6% per annum over the period September 2006 to June 2022, also with lower volatility. [15]
