Box 1321, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 2 Department of Quantitative methods, Institut Supérieur de Gestion de Gabès, University of Gabès, Street Jilani Habib, Gabès 6002, Tunisia * Correspondence: [email protected] or [email protected]; Tel.: +966-553-981-566 Received: 12 March 2019; Accepted: 13 May 2019; Published: 10 July 2019 Abstract: The impact that oil market shocks have on stock markets of oil-related economies has several implications for both domestic and foreign investors. Thus, we investigate the role of the oil market in deriving the dynamic linkage between stock markets of oil-exporting and oil-importing countries. We employed a DCC-FIGARCH model to assess the dynamic relationship between these markets over the period between 2000 and 2018. Our findings report the following regularities: First, the oil-stock markets’ relationship and that between oil-importing and oil-exporting countries’ stock markets themselves is time-varying. Moreover, we note that the response of stock market returns to oil price changes in oil-importing countries changes is more pronounced than for oil-exporting countries during periods of turmoil. Second, the oil-stock dynamic correlations tend to change as a result of the origin of oil prices shocks stemming from the period of global turmoil or changes in the global business cycle. Third, oil prices significantly drive the relationship between oil-importing and oil-exporting countries’ stock markets in both high and low oil-stock correlation regimes.

  • Performance of Option Trading Strategies Evidence for Individual Stocks and the OBX During 2005- 2015
    Daniel Sand and Markus Borchgrevink-Persen ________________________________ Performance of Option Trading Strategies Evidence for Individual Stocks and the OBX During 2005- 2015 Masteroppgave i økonomi og administrasjon Handelshøyskolen ved HiOA 2017 1 ABSTRACT In this paper, we examine risk and return characteristics of some of the more popular option trading strategies such as: Covered calls, Covered combinations, Protective puts, Straddles, Strangles and Butterfly spreads. Long stocks are included as a benchmark. We contribute to a growing part of the literature that examines in detail risk and return characteristics of well- known trading strategies; see Eckbo and Ødegård (2015). We also contribute to Hemler and Miller (2015) by investigating a different market and a different time period. Our sample includes the largest stocks on the OSE together with the corresponding options. As implied volatility has been highlighted in prior literature as an important aspect of trading options, we have included this as a signal for a trading rule used for the last 3 of the said strategies. The results are presented in terms of risk-adjusted performance measures, namely: Sharpe ratio, Jensen’s alpha and Information ratio. We find that the Covered call is the only strategy the generally outperform the long stock strategy, which in turn outperform the rest of the 5 strategies, and that implied volatility fails to signal the strategies into outperforming the others. SAMMENDRAG Denne oppgaven evaluerer prestasjonen til noen av de mer populære opsjonsstrategiene ved hjelp av risikojustert avkastning. Nærmere bestemt - Covered calls, Covered combinations, Protective puts, Straddles, Strangles og Butterfly spreads. “Kjøp og hold” av aksjer er inkludert som en referanseportefølje.

It implies that rational, profit-maximazing investors are not able to consistently outperform the market since prices of stocks in the market are fair, that is, there are no undervalued stocks in the market. Market efficiency is divided into three forms: weak, semi-strong and strong. Weak form of market efficiency implies that technical analysis, utilizing historical data, cannot be used to predict future price movements, since all the historical information is impounded into the stock prices and price changes are random. Semi-strong form of market efficiency states that fundamental analysis does not create opportunity to earn abnormal returns, since all publicly available information is reflected in the stock prices. In market efficiency in its strong form, the price on stock reflects all the relevant information and knowledge of insider information will not create opportunity to earn abnormal returns. In practice, to have a perfectly efficient market is almost impossible. Investors do not always behave rationally, stocks can be priced «wrongly» due to presence of anomaly in price formation process or there can emerge a predictable pattern in stock price changes.

Credits: 30 Keywords: Oslo, Benchmark, Index, Stocks, Oil price, Number of pages: 67 + 7 Brent, USD/NOK, OBX Stavanger, 09.06.2019 i (blank page) ii The impact of changes in Brent oil price on OBX and other major Norwegian indexes and Brent’s impact on the USD/NOK pair. Master’s Thesis by Torstein Magnussen and Bendik Horvei Skeide Spring 2019 University of Stavanger The Faculty of Science and Technology Department of Industrial Economics iii (blank page) iv Abstract Norway is known for its oil and gas dominated industry and oil price dependency. Oil is also one of the most important commodities in the world and is often referred to as the lifeblood of the world economy. This has been a motivator for this thesis to investigate how the Norwegian stock market is affected by the world and the oil price movements. The method chosen to test this is a multiple regression analysis. OBX is used as the dependant variable and β1=Brent, β2=S&P 500 and β3=USD/NOK as independent variables. S&P 500 is added as a variable that to some degree accounts for the global stock market and USD/NOK was added to test for changes in NOK.

  • Price, Volume and Liquidity Fluctuations Around OBX Revisions
    Per Olav Collin Price, Volume and Liquidity Fluctuations Around OBX Revisions Evidence of Temporary Price Pressures and Index Effect Asymmetry Master’s thesis in Financial Economics Supervisor: Snorre Lindset Trondheim, June 2018 Norwegian University of Science and Technology Faculty of Economics and Management Department of Economics Preface This thesis concludes the two-year masters program in Financial Economics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). My curiosity regarding index effects was awakened during the Norwegian Finance Initiative’s Summer School of 2017, where the topic was first introduced to me. It has since been an inspiring maneuver analyzing the phenomenon in further detail. I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Snorre Lindset at the Department of Economics, for support and critique throughout the process. I would also like to thank my wife, Rut Kristine, for her tireless and never-ending encouragement, for which I am grateful. The results and analyses are entirely my own, and I take full responsibility of all content. Trondheim, May 2018 Per Olav Collin i ii Abstract This thesis seeks to isolate potential price, volume, and liquidity effects of revisions to the Oslo Børs Total Return Index (OBX). The research question is investigated using traditional event study methods. The market model is used to calculate normalized returns, whereas abnormal volume turnover is assessed using market-adjusted volume ratios. Additionally, bid- ask spreads are used to determine liquidity effects around index revisions. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical additions to and deletions from the OBX, findings point to significant temporary abnormal price pressures, most likely caused by index fund rebalancing, around the semi-annual revisions of the index.

  • Margin Exceedences for European Stock Index Futures Using Extreme Value Theory
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Margin Exceedences for European Stock Index Futures using Extreme Value Theory Cotter, John University College Dublin 2000 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/3534/ MPRA Paper No. 3534, posted 13 Jun 2007 UTC Margin Exceedences for European Stock Index Futures using Extreme Value Theory JOHN COTTER1 University College Dublin Abstract Futures exchanges require a margin requirement that ensures their competitiveness and protects against default risk. This paper applies extreme value theory in computing unconditional optimal margin levels for a selection of stock index futures traded on European exchanges. The theoretical framework focuses explicitly on tail returns, thereby properly accounting for large levels of risk in measuring prudent margin levels. The paper finds that common margin requirements are sufficient for each contract, with the exception of the Norwegian OBX index, in providing equitable costs for traders. In addition, the paper shows the underestimation bias in margin levels that are calculated assuming normality. Differing margin requirements reflect the unconditional and conditional trading environments. JEL Classification: G15 Keywords: Stock Index Futures; Extreme Value Theory; Margin Levels.

Introduction The commercial strength of Futures Exchanges necessitates that there be a trade-off between optimising liquidity and prudence. The imposition of margins is the mechanism by which these objectives are met. The margin requirement represents a deposit that brokers, and consequentially traders enter into prior to trading.
