Option Pricing on Commodity Prices Using Jump Diffusion Models
In this paper, we aim at developing a model for option pricing to reduce the risks associated with Ethiopian commodity prices fluctuations. We used the daily closed Unwashed Lekempti grade 5 (ULK5) coffee and Whitish Wollega Sesame Seed Grade3 (WWSS3) prices obtained from Ethiopia commodity exchange (ECX) market to analyse the prices fluctuations.The natures of log-returns of the prices exhibit a...
متن کاملProperties of Option Prices in a Jump Diffusion Model
We study convexity and monotonicity properties of option prices in a jump-diffusion model using the fact that these prices satisfy certain parabolic integro-differential equations. Conditions are provided under which preservation of convexity holds, i.e. under which the value, calculated under a chosen martingale measure, of an option with a convex contract function is convex as a function of t...
متن کاملBounds for Perpetual American Option Prices in a Jump Diffusion Model
We provide bounds for perpetual American option prices in a jump diffusion model in terms ofAmerican option prices in the standardBlack–Scholesmodel. We also investigate the dependence of the bounds on different parameters of the model.
متن کاملA Jump-Diffusion Model for Option Pricing
Brownian motion and normal distribution have been widely used in the Black–Scholes option-pricing framework to model the return of assets. However, two puzzles emerge from many empirical investigations: the leptokurtic feature that the return distribution of assets may have a higher peak and two (asymmetric) heavier tails than those of the normal distribution, and an empirical phenomenon called...
متن کاملWeak Convergence for Approximation of American Option Prices
Based on a sequence of discretized American option price processes under the multinomial model proposed by Maller, Solomon and Szimayer [12], the sequence converges to the counterpart under the original Lévy process in distribution for almost all time. By adapting Skorokhod representation theorem, a new sequence of approximating processes with the s ame laws with the multinomial tree model defi...
