问题如下:
Exhibit 1 shows the current government spot rates for Countries A, B, and C.
Tyo presents her market views on the respective yield curves for a five-year investment horizon.
Country A: The government yield curve has changed little in terms of its level and shape during the last few years, and I expect this trend to continue. We assume that future spot rates reflect the current forward curve for all maturities.
Country B: Because of recent economic trends, I expect a reversal in the slope of the current yield curve. We assume that future spot rates will be higher than current forward rates for all maturities.
Country C: To improve liquidity, Country C’s central bank is expected to intervene, leading to a reversal in the slope of the existing yield curve. We assume that future spot rates will be lower than today’s forward rates for all maturities.
Based on Exhibit 1 and assuming Tyo’s market views on yield curve changes are realized, the forward curve of which country will lie below its spot curve?
选项:
A.Country A
B.Country B
C.Country C
解释:
B is correct.
考点:Forward Curve与Spot curve之间的关系
解析:B国的收益率曲线目前向上倾斜,但Tyo预计当前收益率曲线的斜率会出现逆转。这意味着她预期B国的最终收益率曲线向下倾斜,得到的Forward rate曲线将位于Spot rate曲线下方。A是不正确的,因为A国的收益率曲线目前向上倾斜,而Tyo预计收益率曲线将保持该形状。该预期意味着远期利率曲线仍将高于spot rate曲线。C是不正确的,因为C国的收益率曲线目前向下倾斜,而Tyo预计当前收益率曲线的斜率会反转。这意味着她预期C国的最终收益率曲线向上倾斜,这意味着得到的Forward rate曲线将高于spot rate曲线。
问题问的是:assuming Tyo’s market views on yield curve changes are realized
好,那我们看题目:
Tyo presents her market views on the respective yield curves for a five-year investment horizon.
Country A: The government yield curve has changed little in terms of its level and shape during the last few years, and I expect this trend to continue. We assume that future spot rates reflect the current forward curve for all maturities.
Country B: Because of recent economic trends, I expect a reversal in the slope of the current yield curve. We assume that future spot rates will be higher than current forward rates for all maturities.
Country C: To improve liquidity, Country C’s central bank is expected to intervene, leading to a reversal in the slope of the existing yield curve. We assume that future spot rates will be lower than today’s forward rates for all maturities.
Tyo presents her market views 她展示她的view:
A: I expect this trend to continue, We assume that future spot rates reflect the current forward curve for all maturities.(谁是We?我们姑且认为是我们做题者,或者暗指现实情况是这样发生的,或者We也是指Tyo?)
B: I expect a reversal in the slope of the current yield curve, We assume that future spot rates will be higher than current forward rates for all maturities.(这个We阐述的情况是表中的原来的情况,不是reversal的情况。)
C:没有I ,只有We(这里的We也是阐述表中的原来的情况,那Tyo的view是什么呢?无法判断啊)
这题时不时出题人写错了把俩题目搞一起去了,然后we I tyo混了没法做。
这题是出自原版书吧?能帮忙看看是不是有勘误啊? 我查了半天没查到,觉得这题出题人没想清楚写的一团浆糊啊。。。
