股票期貨是在1982年股價指數期貨推出以後,股權類衍生性商品的另一項衍生性商品創新。根據美國期貨業協會(Futures Industry Association, FIA)對全球79家衍生品交易所的最新統計,2010年全年,全球期貨與期權成交量迅速增加。而台灣期貨交易所已於2010年1月25日推出34檔股票期貨,而台灣的2010年的總成交量為724,375張。雖初期成交量不大,但至2011年年底,日均量以及標的股檔數皆大幅成長。預期未來股票期貨將成為台灣資本市場的主力商品之一,因此本論文希望能藉由觀察期貨及現貨間彼此的影響,進而理解股票期貨是否對投資人帶來正面影響。
Single stock futures is a derivative financial product, and it began from 1982. According to the statistics by the Futures Industry Association, we can see that trading volume of single stock futures grew fast in 2011. Taiwan began trading single stock futures on January 25, 2010. Until the end of 2011, there have been 236 single stock futures to trade. We expect that single stock futures will become one of the main commodity in Taiwan in the future. We concern the effect of single stock futures’ introducing, so we observe the interaction between single stock futures and its underlying stocks.
