Meanwhile, captains in the Persian Gulf are turning off their transponders and sneaking through the Strait of Hormuz in the dead of night. Only five ships made it through yesterday. The seaborne oil buffer that insulated the global economy in the early weeks of the conflict is now completely exhausted, and the knock-on effects - from jet fuel shortages in Europe to a fertilizer crisis threatening this year's harvest - are only just beginning to show up in the data. In this video, we look at why the physical commodity markets are telling a very different story to the stock market, and what happens when the world's most critical trade route is caught between two competing blockades.Patrick'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: https://www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://bsky.app/profile/pboyle.bsky.socialBusiness Inquiries ➡️ sponsors@onfinance.orgPatrick 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.

    Ant Group's IPO Suspended. Chinese Regulator Cites "Major Issues"

    Ant Group's IPO is Suspended. Chinese Regulator Cites "Major Issues" In an online notice posted today, the Shanghai exchange said that the company’s proposed offering may not meet the conditions for listing after Chinese regulators summoned Jack Ma, Ant’s controlling shareholder and the founder of Alibaba, for a meeting yesterday. Alibaba is down around 6% as of this recording, having been down even more this morning. Lets discuss what is going on and what might happen with the Ant group IPO.Neither the regulators nor Ant Financial have disclosed what was discussed at the meeting. But the timing of the meeting, just days before Ant shares were expected to begin trading concurrently in Shanghai and Hong Kong, suggests that the Chinese government is unhappy with either the company or with Mr. Ma.Patrick's Books:Statistics for Traders: https://amzn.to/3eerLA0Financial Derivatives: https://amzn.to/3cjsyPFCorporate Finance: https://amzn.to/3fn3rvC Visit our website: www.onfinance.orgFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoylePatreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/PatrickBoyleOnFinance Learn more about your ad choices.

    How do you calculate value at risk? Two ways of calculating VaR

    In todays video we learn how to calculate VaR or Value at Risk.Buy The Book Here: https://amzn.to/37HIdEBFollow Patrick on Twitter Here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleWhat is VAR?The most popular and traditional measure of risk is volatility. The main problem with volatility, however, is that it does not care about the direction of an investment's movement: a stock can be volatile because it suddenly jumps higher. Of course, investors do not get upset about gains. For investors, risk is about losing money, and VAR is based on that idea. By assuming investors care about the odds of a really big loss, VAR answers the question, “How much might I lose in a normal bad day?" and “How much could I lose in a really bad day?"Now let's get specific. A VAR statistic has three components: a time period, a confidence level and a loss amount (or loss percentage). You can see how the "VAR question" has three elements: a relatively high level of confidence (typically either 95% or 99%), a time period (a day, a month or a year) and an estimate of investment loss (expressed either in dollar or percentage terms).There are three methods of calculating VAR: the historical method, the variance-covariance method also known as the model approach) and the Monte Carlo simulation. I have covered Monte Carlo in a separate video. In this video we look at the Historical method and the model approach.What is the Historical method for calculating Value at Risk?The historical method simply re-organizes actual historical returns, putting them in order from worst to best. It then assumes that history will repeat itself, from a risk perspective.What is the Variance-Covariance Method or the model approach for calculating Value at Risk?This method assumes that stock returns are normally distributed. In other words, it requires that we estimate only two factors - an expected (or average) return and a standard deviation - which allow us to plot a normal distribution curve. The idea behind the variance-covariance is similar to the ideas behind the historical method - except that we use the familiar curve instead of actual data. The advantage of the normal curve is that we automatically know where the worst 5% and 1% lie on the curve. They are a function of our desired confidence and the standard deviationWhat is the Monte Carlo Simulation approach to calculating Value at Risk?The third method involves developing a model for future stock price returns and running multiple hypothetical trials through the model. A Monte Carlo simulation refers to any method that randomly generates trials, but by itself does not tell us anything about the underlying methodology. I have created a separate video on that topic which you can find here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luSEdT2HBI4 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    What is a Strangle? | Options Trading Strategies | Combining Options

    What is a Strangle? Options Trading Strategy - Options CombinationsThese 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/PatrickEBoyleWhat is a Strangle?A strangle is an options strategy where the investor holds a position in both a call and put with different strike prices, but with the same expiration date and underlying asset. This option strategy is profitable only if the underlying asset has a large price move. This is a good strategy if you think there will be a large price movement in the near future but are unsure of which way that price movement will be.What is Long Strangle?A long strangle is simultaneously buying an out of the money call and an out-of-the-money put option. This strategy has a large profit potential, since the call option has theoretically unlimited profit if the underlying asset rises in price, and the put option can profit if the underlying asset falls. The risk on the trade is limited to the premium paid for the two options.What is a Short Strangle?A short strangle is a neutral strategy and has limited profit potential. The maximum profit is equivalent to the net premium received for writing the two options, less any trading costs. A short strangle is selling an out of the money call and an out of the money put option.What is the Difference Between Strangle and Straddle? Long strangles and long straddles are similar options strategies that allow investors to gain from large potential moves to the upside or downside. However, a long straddle involves simultaneously purchasing at the money call and put options.A short straddle is similar to a short strangle and has a limited maximum profit potential that is equivalent to the premium collected from writing the at the money call and put options.Buying a strangle is generally less expensive than a straddle as the contracts are purchased out of the money. The counter-argument to this is that since the options are out of the money, the underlying will need to make a larger price move in order for the strategy to create a profit.
