全球矚目的央行年會即將來襲 期權交易商卻不在乎
uSMART盈立智投 08-26 17:06

今年以來,美聯儲的政策已經引發了市場的大幅波動,但期權交易商預計,本週舉辦的傑克遜霍爾全球央行年會將不會引發任何激烈的市場反應。

期權分析公司ORATS負責人Matt Amberson表示,期權倉位顯示,交易員預計標普500指數在8月26日將有1.4%的波動(屆時美聯儲主席鮑威爾將在全球央行年會發表講話),這僅略高於對未來一個月股市每日波動1.0%的預期。

OptionMetrics首席量化師Garrett DeSimone表示:“期權市場似乎將全球央行年會視爲一件無關緊要的事情。”

DeSimone表示,儘管在年會前波動性預期仍有時間升溫,但目前期權定價反映出“相對較低的崩盤風險定價”。

對此,市場參與者給出了一系列關於波動預期可能減弱的原因。例如,在近幾周,美聯儲政策制定者發表了大量反對通脹見頂的預期以及美聯儲立場將轉向鴿派的言論,這讓投資者對美聯儲的想法有了更清晰的瞭解。

除此之外,儘管市場仍普遍預期美聯儲將在9月再加息50-75個基點,但鮑威爾對未來政策的展望可能會受到當月公佈的經濟數據報告的影響,其中包括通脹和就業等關鍵數據。

嘉信理財金融研究中心負責交易和衍生品的副總裁Randy Frederick表示:“每個人似乎在某種程度上都達成了共識:我們目前仍處於政策緊縮過程,只是這一過程可能會逐漸放緩。”

Frederick表示:“對市場來說,價格波動性上升通常意味着他們在期待驚喜。但我認爲,沒有人期待這次會議會有任何驚天動地的發現。”

從近幾年來看,美聯儲主席在全球央行年會的講話也沒有對市場產生重大影響。在過去10年中,標普500指數只有一次在美聯儲主席在全球央行年會發表講話的當天出現超過1%的波動。

儘管今年股市的波動性遠高於正常水平,但近幾個月來,隨着標普500指數從6月中旬低點反彈15%,市場波動有所緩解。目前,芝加哥期權交易所波動率指數(VIX)指數徘徊在20左右,相比之下,今年早些時候該指數曾一度達到近40的高點。

不過,依然有一些市場觀察人士認爲,鮑威爾將發表比預期更加鷹派的觀點,從而可能對股市造成衝擊。

上週三,美聯儲7月會議紀要顯示,政策制定者承諾將利率提高到抑制通脹所必需的水平。另外,包括聖路易斯聯儲主席布拉德和舊金山聯儲主席戴利在內的幾位美聯儲發言人隨後強調,政策制定者需要不斷提高借貸成本,以控制飆升的價格。

AmeriVet Securities美國利率交易和策略主管Gregory Faranello表示:“我感覺他們可能正在爲(鮑威爾)鋪路,他的講話或許會更傾向於鷹派。如果事情真如想象的那樣發生,我們可能會看到股市出現拋售。”
