current return

NO.PZ2019040801000078

问题如下:

Bridgewood uses an exponentially weighted moving average model (EWMA) to model the daily volatility of a stock. The decay factor is 0.85. The current estimate of daily volatility 2.5%. The stock closed at $35 yesterday and today's closing price is $33. Assume that we use continuously compounded returns. What is the updated estimate of volatility?

选项:

A.

5.429%.

B.

3.241%.

C.

3.009%.

D.

2.739%.

解释:

B is correct.

考点:Estimating Volatilities

解析:使用EWMA模型,Updated volatility estimate = [λ*(volatility_(t-1))^2 + (1-λ)*(current return)^2]^0.5

由题目条件,λ=0.85。而 Current return = ln(price today / price yesterday) =ln(33/35) = -5.884%

所以 Updated volatility estimate = [0.85*2.5%^2+0.15*(-5.884%)^2]^0.5 =3.241%

current return 能否用33/35-1?一般题目中给什么关键词用ln?
