the greater the effect of interest. Rho measures an option’s sensitivity to the
|
||||
end results of these three influences.
|
||||
To understand how changes in interest affect option prices, consider a
|
||||
typical at-the-money (ATM) conversion on a non-dividend-paying stock.
|
||||
Short 1 May 50 call at 1.92
|
||||
Long 1 May 50 put at 1.63
|
||||
Long 100 shares at $50
|
||||
With 43 days until expiration at a 5 percent interest rate, the interest on
|
||||
the 50 strike will be about $0.29. Put-call parity ensures that this $0.29
|
||||
shows up in option prices. After rearranging the equation, we get
|
||||
In this example, both options are exactly ATM. There is no intrinsic value.
|
||||
Therefore, the difference between the extrinsic values of the call and the put
|
||||
must equal interest. If one option were in-the-money (ITM), the intrinsic
|
||||
value on the left side of the equation would be offset by the Stock − Strike
|
||||
on the right side. Still, it would be the difference in the time value of the
|
||||
call and put that equals the interest variable.
|
||||
This is shown by the fact that the synthetic stock portion of the
|
||||
conversion is short at $50.29 (call − put + strike). This is $0.29 above the
|
||||
stock price. The synthetic stock equals the Stock + Interest, or
|
||||
Certainly, if the interest rate were higher, the interest on the synthetic
|
||||
stock would be a higher number. At a 6 percent interest rate, the effective
|
||||
short price of the synthetic stock would be about $50.35. The call would be
|
||||
valued at about 1.95, and the put would be 1.60—a net of $0.35.
|
||||
A one-percentage-point rise in the interest rate causes the synthetic stock
|
||||
position to be revalued by $0.06—a $0.03 gain in the call value and a $0.03
|
||||
decline in the put. Therefore, by definition, the call has a +0.03 rho and the
|
||||
put has a −0.03 rho.
