问题如下:
The Bureau of Labor Statistics has just reported an unexpected short-term increase in high-priced luxury automobiles. What is the most likely anticipated impact on a mean-reverting model of interest rates?
选项:
A. The economic information is long-lived
with a low mean-reversion parameter.
B. The economic information is
short-lived with a low mean-reversion parameter.
C. The economic information is long-lived
with a high mean-reversion parameter.
D. The economic information is
short-lived with a high mean-reversion parameter.
解释:
D is correct. The economic news is most likely short-term in nature. Therefore, the mean reversion parameter is high so the mean reversion adjustment per period will be relatively large.
