Option pricing stochastic volatility Jump-risk premium implied-state generalized method of moments volatility smiles and smirks
摘要:
This paper examines the joint time series of the S&P 500 index and near-the-money short-dated option prices with an arbitrage-free model, capturing both stochastic volatility and jumps. Jump-risk premia Uncovered from the joint data respond quickly to market volatility, becoming more prominent during volatile markets. This form of jump-risk premia is important not only in reconciling the dynamics implied by the joint data, but also in explaining the volatility smirks of cross-sectional options data.
