解释:
Here, we are dealing with a short time period, and so it is reasonable to assume that the return is normally distributed. The return has a mean of 15% X (1 /252) = 0.0595%, and a standard deviation of 20% X = 1.2599%. The 99% confidence interval for the percentage return is between:
0.0595 - 1.2599 X (0.995) = -3.186%
and
0.0595 + 1.2599 X (0.995)= +3.305%
The confidence interval for the stock price is therefore between 50 X 0.96814 = 48.4 and
50 X 1.03305 = 51.7.
老师好,请问这题为啥不用469页的公式求解?反而去了一种较为简单的公式。看其他同学的提问,助教老师说是因为时间长短的原因?一天的用简便公式?考试时候如何去区分该用哪个公式?另外关于一年天数的选择,是否在FRM里固定取252天?谢谢。
