Hey guys, I'm new to the site and this is the only forum where I've seen people asking questions on the CFA exam material and actually getting a response. This is what I hope to get out of this forum. Hopefully I'll be able to get some help and also give it to others. Anyways, onto my question: Why is this true? I do not understand the following statement: A short position in an equity forward could not hedge the risk of a purchase of that equity in the future. A qualitative as well as a quantitative example would help a lot. This post showed up in the wrong forum before. My apologies. |
