问一道题:NO.PZ2019103001000041

问题如下:

McLaughlin and Michaela Donaldson, a junior analyst at Delphi, are now discussing how to reposition the portfolio in light of McLaughlin’s expectations about interest rates over the next 12 months. She expects interest rate volatility to be high and the yield curve to experience an increase in the 2s/10s/30s butterfly spread, with the 30-year yield remaining unchanged. Selected yields on the Treasury yield curve, and McLaughlin’s expected changes in yields over the next 12 months, are presented in Exhibit 1.

Donaldson suggests they also consider altering the portfolio’s convexity to enhance expected return given McLaughlin’s interest rate expectations.

Given McLaughlin’s interest rate expectations over the next 12 months, one way that Donaldson and McLaughlin could alter convexity to enhance expected return would be to:

选项:

A.

sell call options on bonds held in the portfolio.

B.

buy call options on long-maturity government bond futures.

C.

sell put options on bonds they would be willing to own in the portfolio.

解释:

B is correct.

McLaughlin expects interest rate volatility to be high and the yield curve to experience an increase in the butterfly spread, with the 30-year yield remaining unchanged. To increase the portfolio’s expected return, Donaldson and McLaughlin should buy call options on long-maturity government bond futures to increase convexity.

She expects interest rate volatility to be high and the yield curve to experience an increase in the 2s/10s/30s butterfly spread 这个是啥?, with the 30-year yield 前面刚说的30s是会变的,这为啥又不变了呢? remaining unchanged.

Butterfly spread =−(Short-term yield)+ (2× Mid-term yield) −Long-term yield

E.g., –(2-Year yield) + (2 × 10-Year yield) – 30-Year yield

详见基础班讲义P183页。

他这里的意思是这个spread上升 在30-year yield不变的情况下。

NO.PZ2019103001000041 “因为题干预测的利率信息是利率波动加大 She expects interest rate volatility to high anthe yielcurve to experienincrease in the 2s/10s/30s butterfly sprea with the 30-yeyielremaining unchange所以B说的Buy options,就会增加组合的Convexity,于是组合获得“涨多跌少”的优势,策略会增强收益。” 怎么理解increase in the 2s/10s/30s butterfly spreasprea加利率增加,债券价格下跌幅度再有限,但那也是跌啊哪来的enhanreturn?为啥不能直接卖了option赚期权费 收益的更多?

请问,题干中已经说明30年期收益率不变,那么即便买入长期国债期货是不是也不会增加收益呢?毕竟convexity特性是涨多涨多跌少,可30年长期利率不变啊。

不好意思老师还是没有看懂,如果说利率上升,债券价格降低,为啥要买看涨期权呢?增加了convexity但是又额外付出了成本呀
