【🎁有獎話題】SMCI波動率高企,做空機會來了?

11月18日, $超微電腦(SMCI)$ 表示已經聘請了世界第五大會計師事務所BDO作爲其獨立審計師,並向納斯達克提交了符合上市要求的計劃,這一舉措滿足了納斯達克對上市公司的監管要求,增強了投資者對公司未來合規性的信心。

超微電腦預計,公司將能夠提交截至6月30日的年度報告以及截至9月30日的季度報告,並且,在納斯達克“審查合規計劃”期間,超微電腦將繼續在納斯達克上市。

超微電腦CEO Charles Liang在一份聲明中表示:

“這是我們將財務報表更新爲最新狀態的關鍵一步,是我們以嚴謹和緊迫感推動的努力。”

此前8月,超微電腦未能按時提交2024年的年度報告,原先的審計師安永於10月辭職。

知名空頭賣方Hindenburg Research隨後披露了超微電腦的空頭倉位,並在報告中指出“發現了新的會計操縱證據”。《華爾街日報》隨後報道稱,美國司法部正在對超微電腦展開初步調查。

2022年初至2024年3月的兩年間,超微電腦的股價飆升超過20倍,但由於出現合規性問題,股價遭遇重創,過去6個月跌超76%。

消息發佈後,超微電腦美股盤後一度漲超40%,週一的股價大幅反彈顯示,市場對超微最新的合規措施表現出一定程度的信心。這也爲公司爭取更多時間解決監管問題和恢復投資者信任奠定了基礎。

SMCI超高波動率帶來投資機會

此時超微電腦也給與了投資者投資機會。SMCI的隱含波動率(IV)爲184.8,位於第99百分位。這意味着在過去一年中,IV有99%的時間低於當前水平。當前的IV(184.8)比其20日移動平均值(140.7)高出31.3%,表明隱含波動率正呈上升趨勢。

如何做空高波動率?

在期權中,做空波動率的策略主要是通過賣出期權來賺取時間價值,因爲當波動率降低時,期權的時間價值會縮水。以下是幾種常用的做空波動率的策略:

  1. 賣出跨式(Straddle)或寬跨式(Strangle)策略

    1. 賣出跨式:同時賣出相同行權價的看漲期權和看跌期權,通常在預期標的價格會穩定或波動不大時使用。

    2. 賣出寬跨式:賣出不同行權價的看漲和看跌期權,適用於預期波動較低,但不確定具體價格方向的情況。

    3. 注意事項:跨式和寬跨式策略都是裸賣出策略,風險較高,波動率回升或價格劇烈變動會導致鉅額損失。

  2. 鐵鷹式價差(Iron Condor)

    1. 在標的資產價格兩側分別賣出看漲期權和看跌期權,然後在更遠的行權價分別買入看漲和看跌期權作爲保護。

    2. 適合於預期波動率較低或價格變化有限的情形,因爲該策略在高波動市場中容易虧損。

  3. 鐵蝶式價差(Iron Butterfly)

    1. 類似於鐵鷹式,但與跨式組合類似,選擇中心行權價賣出看漲和看跌期權,然後在兩側較遠的行權價上買入看漲和看跌期權。

    2. 此策略的收穫也來自低波動,但收益空間和風險相比於裸賣出跨式更爲有限。

  4. 日曆價差(Calendar Spread)

    1. 通過賣出近期的期權、買入遠期的期權(行權價相同)實現做空波動率。

    2. 如果波動率回落,近期期權貶值較快,而遠期期權價格相對持穩,有利於獲利。

  5. 賣出單腿看漲期權(Short Call)或賣出單腿看跌期權(Short Put)

    1. 當標的資產預計波動較小或不漲不跌時,賣出看漲或看跌期權都可以賺取期權時間價值的損耗。

    2. 這種單腿策略風險較大,通常適合對標的走勢有較強信心的情況。

  6. 比率價差(Ratio Spread)

    1. 賣出多張期權合約並買入少量相同類型的期權合約,常用於預期波動率降低的情形,尤其在價差策略基礎上增加賣出頭寸。

    2. 在波動率降低時,賣出的期權數量增多有助於增大收益,但風險也相對提高。

這些策略各有優缺點,通常適合對波動率變化有明確預期的市場環境。一般來說,做空波動率的策略需格外注意風險管理,因爲一旦波動率上升或市場出現意外波動,會面臨較大損失。

    🌟🌟🌟A listed company like $SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC(SMCI)$  has a fiduciary duty to its shareholders to be responsible for its accounting matters.  That is why when news broke that there are some accounting errors leading to suspicion of accounting manipulation, SMCI share price fell like a rock. 

    However now that they have appointed another auditor and wants to maintain its listing in the Nasdaq Stock Market, investors are relieved and the share price jumped 39% in after hours trading. 

    At the current level, SMCI is trading at a deep discount especially when its 52 week high is USD 122.90.  Let's hope SMCI get their accounting matters in order soon for the sake of their shareholders.

    SMCI's high volatility presents investment opportunities

    Super Micro Computer's implied volatility (IV) is 184.8, ranking in the 99th percentile. This indicates that IV has been lower 99% of the time over the past year.

    To profit from high volatility:

    1. Sell straddles or strangles: Sell call and put options with the same strike price or different strike prices.

    2. Iron Condor: Sell call and put options with different strike prices and buy further out-of-the-money call and put options.

    3. Iron Butterfly: Sell call and put options with the same strike price and buy call and put options with farther out-of-the-money strike prices.

    4. Calendar Spread: Sell near-term options and buy longer-term options with the same strike price.

    1. Short Call or Short Put: Sell call or put options when the underlying asset is expected to trade within a narrow range.

    2. Ratio Spread: Sell multiple options contracts and buy fewer contracts of the same type.

    These strategies require careful risk management, as increasing volatility or unexpected market fluctuations can result in significant losses.

    in general, strategies to short the volatility rate need to pay special attention to risk management, because once the volatility rate rises or the market experiences unexpected fluctuations, you will face greater losses.

    儘管近期股價反彈,但長期的合規性和管理層的穩定性仍是影響公司未來表現的關鍵因素。

    日曆價差: 通過賣出近期期權並買入遠期期權,若波動率回落,可獲利。這種策略有助於利用時間價值的貶值。

    鐵鷹式價差: 這是一種較保守的策略,適合於低波動市場。通過在兩側分別賣出和買入期權,可以在一定範圍內減少損失風險。

    若預期股價穩定,可以考慮賣出相同或不同的行權價的看漲和看跌期權。這種策略在波動性降低時能賺取時間價值,但需謹慎,因為價格劇烈波動會導致損失。

    SMCI的隱含波動率(IV)高達184.8,這顯示出其市場波動性極高。對於投資者而言,這提供了潛在的交易機會。高波動性意味著期權價格可能會受到劇烈的變化,這對於做空波動率的策略來說是一個重要考量。

    由於未能按時提交年度報告,SMCI的股價遭遇重創,過去六個月跌幅超過76%,近期反彈也不意味什麼

    Each of these strategies has its own advantages and disadvantages, and is usually suitable for market environments with clear expectations for changes in volatility.

  • 我看涨,虽然这个过程肯定会有波动。目前我持仓8000多股,准备卖40 cover call就好了。卖掉的话,就落袋为安了。没有的话,下周继续卖。这一波,已经满意了。

    Previously, Super Micro Computer failed to submit its 2024 annual report on time, and its former auditor, Ernst & Young, resigned in October. Notable short seller Hindenburg Research disclosed a short position in SMCI, citing new evidence of accounting manipulation. The Wall Street Journal reported that the US Department of Justice is conducting a preliminary investigation into Super Micro Computer.
