    What is Futures Margin? - What Is It? How Does It Work?

    What is Futures Margin? - What Is It? How Does It Work?These classes are all based on the book Trading and Pricing Financial Derivatives, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/2WIoAL0 Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleMargin is a critical concept for those trading futures and derivatives in all asset classes. Futures margin is a good-faith deposit or an amount of capital one needs to post or deposit to control a futures contract. The margin is a down payment on the full contract value of a futures contract. Futures exchanges determine and set futures margin rates. At times, brokerage companies will add an extra premium to the minimum exchange margin rate to lower risk exposure. The margin is set based on the risk of market volatility. When market volatility moves higher in a futures market margin rates rise. When trading stocks, there is a simpler margin arrangement than in the futures market. The equity market allows participants to trade on up to 50% margin. Therefore, one can buy or sell up to $100,000 worth of stock for $50,000.Margin Rate for Future Contracts In the world of futures contracts, the margin rate is much lower. In a typical futures contract, the margin rate varies between 5 and 15% of the total contract value. Initial Futures Margin is the amount of money that is required to open a buy or sell position on a futures contract.Initial margin is original margin, the amount posted when the original trade takes place.Margin Maintenance or Variation MarginMargin Maintenance is the amount of money necessary when a loss on a futures position requires one to allocate more funds to return the margin to the initial or original margin level. Closing or liquidating a position eliminates the margin call requirement. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    More than 30 stocks might be removed from the SandP 500 | Index Adds and Deletes | Passive Investing

    Passive investment indexes in times of market volatility have become a subplot of the recent drama in markets, following wild moves in the oil market. It’s looking like things could kick off in stocks, too, as index overseers consider ejecting underperforming companies.In indexes like the S&P 500, dozens of companies are at risk of deletion, after shares dove in March. While index compilers are guided by rules, they must also use their judgment in assessing the market right now: how much of the recent plunge will turn out to be permanent?The S&P committee is going to have to decide how long to wait before ejecting impaired companies, The S&P 500 may be the world’s most-followed passive index, but the recent market volatility is going to force its constructors into some very active choices.More than 30 firms might be removed from the S&P 500.The S&P500 has staged a remarkable recovery since March, a rebound whose strength is largely due to its weighting in technology and health-care stocks. Less noticed by investors is the impact of almost fifty company removals over the last three years. These deletions were mostly of retail, industrial and energy companies, sectors that have happened to struggle the most in 2020.A basket of the companies deleted from the S&P 500 over the past three years (for reasons other than acquisitions) is down 47% this year, almost five times more than the broad markets 2020 decline. Just five of the deleted firms have shown positive returns year to date. Bed Bath & Beyond and Macy’s, two large retailers are down around 70%.Many of these companies were in some form of trouble before 2020, justifying their removal. But the fact that they belong to the industries that have struggled the most this year has been fortunate for anyone with passive index exposure to the market.Changes in index members are made as needed and can be made at any time, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. Human judgment is part of the process, the committee aims to minimize turnover and doesn’t view crossing below thresholds governing, market capitalization, as a reason alone to eject a stock.The criteria for addition to an index are not the same as those for continued membership according to the S&P U.S. Indices Methodology rule book available on the Standard & Poors website. “An index constituent that appears to violate criteria for addition to that index is not necessarily going to be deleted unless its impairment is judged to be more permanent.Removal of 30 companies would exceed the annual average over the last thirty years and be one of the busiest years on record. Even passive investments have active elements, a fact on display last month when an oil ETF reshuffled the mix of its futures in order to protect itself from blowing up. A company must have a market-cap of at least $8.2 billion for S&P 500 consideration. Liquidity must also be sufficient, and the sum of total earnings over the past four quarters must be positive, along with profits in the most recent quarter.Market-cap guidelines for the S&P500 were raised to $8.2 billion on Feb. 20, 2019, about a fifth of companies in the index no longer meet that standard today.The index committee is probably hesitant to add more technology firms to a benchmark that’s already very concentrated in that sector. The Information Technology sector makes up 26% of the index, the highest share since the dot-com boom.Buy Patricks' Books Here: https://amzn.to/3dSPftJVisit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePassive investing, index adds and deletes, vanguard index fund.

    Japan Spent 60 Billion Dollars Defending The Yen!

    Get a free 14-day trial of Odoo’s all-in-one business solution and see how it can make your life easier! Check it out at https://www.odoo.com/r/YQWOver a four-day period Japan is suspected to have carried out two interventions to support the yen at an estimated cost of $59 billion dollars.The first intervention came after the yen fell below 160 to the dollar for the first time in 34 years. The second intervention came a few days later after Jerome Powell announced that a rate hike was unlikely to be the Fed’s next interest-rate move.The simplest explanation for the declining yen is that it is entirely driven by Japanese interest rates being low relative to other developed markets. People take their money out of the yen which is yielding 0 and put it in dollar denominated bonds to earn 5% - leading to a decline in the yen, but my friend Manoj Pradhan at Talking Heads Macro argues that this is a lazy oversimplification and that the Yen and Japanese markets are possibly the most interesting story in macroeconomics today.Manoj Pradhan on Twitter: https://x.com/ManojPradhanTHMPatrick's Books:Statistics For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Derivatives For The Trading Floor: https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance: https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Ways To Support The ChannelPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinanceBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/patrickboyleVisit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePatrick Boyle On Finance Podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7uhrWlDvxzy9hLoW0EYf0bApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/patrick-boyle-on-finance/id1547740313Google Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/62862nveJoin this channel to support making this content:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCASM0cgfkJxQ1ICmRilfHLw/join Learn more about your ad choices.

    What are the problems with VaR? | Risk Management | Finance

    In todays video we will learn about some of the problems in Value at Risk.These classes are all based on the book Trading and Pricing Financial Derivatives, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/2WIoAL0 Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleIn todays video we will learn about some problems with Value at Risk (VaR) Calculations.One of the first issues with VaR is that there is no standard protocol for the statistics used to determine asset, portfolio or firm-wide risk. For example, statistics calculated using a period of low volatility may understate the potential for risk events to occur and the magnitude of those events. Risk may be further understated using normal distribution probabilities, which rarely account for extreme events.The assessment of potential loss represents the lowest amount of risk in a range of outcomes. For example, a VaR determination of 95% with 20% asset risk represents an expectation of losing at least 20% one of every 20 days on average. In this calculation, a loss of 50% still validates the risk assessment.The financial crisis of 2008 exposed these problems as the relatively benign VaR calculations ended up understating the risk posed by portfolios of subprime mortgages. Risk magnitude was also underestimated, which resulted in extreme leverage ratios within subprime portfolios. As a result, the underestimations left institutions unable to cover billions of dollars in losses as subprime mortgage values collapsed.Watch the video for more information.
