Since a derivative security has a price, one can also buy or sell a future or option on it (derivative of a derivative).

Fair price of a future(?)

What is the fair price of a future (per share of a stock S)?

Fair price of a future(?)

What is the fair price of a future (per share of a stock S)?

A possible answer: S will fluctuate according to GBM. Wehave already calculated the distribution of prices at T:

Hedging

No!

Page 22: Lecture 8: Finance: GBM model for share prices, futures and options, hedging, and the Black-Scholes equation Outline: GBM as a model of share prices futures.

Hedging

No! This argument ignores the possibility of hedging.

Page 23: Lecture 8: Finance: GBM model for share prices, futures and options, hedging, and the Black-Scholes equation Outline: GBM as a model of share prices futures.

Hedging

No! This argument ignores the possibility of hedging.

The seller could just buy a share of S herself at t = 0 and sellit to the buyer at maturity (T). This is riskless for the seller.Cost to the seller: She had to spend some of her own money (=S0)on that share at t = 0. That money could (risklessly) have beeninvested in T-bills, which give a rate r0. By buying the share, she has lost the chance to see her original cash become S0exp(r0T).

Suppose we are at time T – dt (the day before maturity), and S(T - dt) > X. The seller needs this much stock in order to be able to be able to sell it to the buyer.
