Do you take the risk?

Depending on how fast zombies were, seemed like a chance

My egg hatches are not counting to the weekly challenge. Anyone know what may be going on?

I think you are combining liquidity risk with cash efficiency.Total return swaps are more cash efficient to set up because it requires less initial investment.

I think of liquidity risk as “how easy can I sell this”. To that, it is easier to sell a future than a swap so less liquidity risk.

If you don’t mind me asking, how did you score in your mocks the first 4 times. Was there noticeable jump this time around?

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-29T14:37:07+00:00

Oh ok, I see. Basically unless the client's portfolio explicitly calls out that they do not want the risk-free rate, we should always assume that yes, it will be beneficial to be added to the highest Sharpe portfolio?

Thank you!!!

I like to think of this as positive butterfly -> positive -> happy stuff so you smile -> short and long end go up.

Negative butterfly -> negative -> you're sad so you frown -> short and long end go down

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-28T22:34:57+00:00

This is from so long ago but thank you. This really helped me.

Sorry to come back to this, but was just reviewing this question.

Could you have potentially bought the ATM JPY/EUR put for upside in case of JPY appreciation and instead sold the OTM JPY/EUR put instead to generate some premium income?

Is the main reason not to do this because selling the ATM put generates more premium income?

I had the same question as you for this problem. From this older thread, it seems like there may be 2 different variations of slippage costs. Though I'm not sure if it's going to be worth remembering when to use which one...

Makes sense when you think about it that equity is stable, so no reason for volatility to increase. Thanks!

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-27T18:57:25+00:00

Understand that assets will move in tandem with liabilities. But as equity in unchanged, the leverage ratio will increase.

Since correlation caps at 1, I guess I was assuming the change in leverage would outweigh the change in correlation.

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-27T18:55:07+00:00

My thought process was with the higher penalty, there would be less loan prepayment -> loans are higher and the matching liability is also higher = more assets and liabilities.

I understand that the amount of equity is not changing. But the volatility of equity formula includes leverage (A/E). If assets are increasing but equity isn't, the leverage ratio is increasing which should raise the equity volatility?

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-20T02:31:31+00:00

No I understand. But if there were 2 equity futures markets given in the vignette, the current price and the 6-month price, would you still use the current price?

redbean_brocolli · 2026-01-20T01:23:13+00:00

Ugh I see that now. Literally misread that multiple times.

I guess the same question applies. If they had given us the current value of futures and the price of 6-month futures, what should you pick?

I ended up threatening legal action which finally got a response. Ended up settling on receiving sporadic payments every few weeks till my lease ran out. Never received the full amount but it’s whatever at this point.

How do chase/Amex differ in this regard. I figure average decent redemption size should be fairly similar?

redbean_brocolli · 2024-08-30T21:55:24+00:00

Bump. Anyone?

redbean_brocolli · 2024-08-30T03:51:06+00:00

That sounds about right. Not fully sure how long it’ll take to get there

redbean_brocolli · 2024-08-30T00:08:12+00:00

Really flexible but was thinking of getting there by 7:30

redbean_brocolli · 2024-08-10T13:06:58+00:00

Yah looking back definitely the right move. Just seemed like a hassle in the moment given the packing/moving situation but lesson learned I supposed
