问题如下:

An analyst on the fixed-income derivatives desk at an investment bank is examining the method of determining the cheapest-to-deliver US Treasury bond when delivering into a short position in a Treasury bond futures contract. The analyst is focusing on the impact of the level and shape of the yield curve on determining which types of bonds are most likely the cheapest-to-deliver. Which of the following statements most likely to correctly describe the analyst’s findings?

选项:

A.

An upward sloping yield curve favors low-coupon, short-maturity bonds.

B.

An environment where bond yields are greater than 6% favors high-coupon, long-maturity bonds.

C.

An environment where bond yields are less than 6% favors high-coupon, short-maturity bonds.

D.

A downward sloping yield curve favors low-coupon, long-maturity bonds.

解释:

C is correct. Interest rate environments where bond yields are less than 6% favor high-coupon, short-maturity bonds to be the cheapest to deliver into a futures contract.

A is incorrect. An upward sloping yield curve favors long-maturity bonds.

B is incorrect. An interest rate environment where bond yields are greater than 6% favor low-coupon, long-maturity bonds.

D is incorrect. A downward sloping yield curve favors short-maturity bonds.

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


本题考点是cheapest-to-deliver。这个是债券期货的最便宜可交割券。就是对于债券期货的空头来说,在到期日可以选择交割成本最低的债券现货交给多头。


可以参考基础班讲义P290-292:


对应的视频是Cheapest–to-Deliver Bond Option
