在中共央行宣布大手笔刺激计划后,投资者加大对了中国市场反弹的预期,疯狂抢购美国交易平台上与之相关的看涨期权。亚洲股市随后大幅上涨,中国央行及金融官员表示将力挺房地产市场并提振整体经济。此消息使得市场热度蔓延至美国市场,追踪大型股和互联网公司的交易所交易基金(ETF)涨幅均超过了8%,阿里巴巴的存托凭证一度飙涨11%,拼多多更是跃升逾7%。
在期权市场上,iShares 中国大盘 ETF(代码Isshinao)的日交易量达到了二月以来的最高点。一份针对中国市场股市涨跌预测期权合约中,赌中国经济增长预期的交易较之前出现了巨大变动,看涨与看跌比率一度攀升至2015年来的峰值。在此之前,该比率为极度低位,从8月初的深折扣状态反转。
在当天最大的一笔交易上,投资者投入675万美元,购入了期权合约,在今年11月中期,可按每股33美元的价格购买最多1.5亿股股票,预测股市至少还将上涨约12%。此类看涨期权不仅涉及iShares 中国大盘 ETF、Xtrackers Harvest CSI 中国A 股ETF(代码Harvest)及PDD Holdings的存托凭证(代码PDD)等具体公司,也波及到了广泛的新兴市场基金。
其中,追踪MSCI新兴市场指数的iShares MSCI新兴市场ETF(代码IMx)的交易量激增至日常平均水平的四倍以上。投资者在该ETF中大量买入了50美元期权,这一价格相当于到12月到期时可以购买超过13百万股股票的权利,涨幅约为当前股价的11%。
这一现象表明,在全球经济不确定性增加的大背景下,对中国经济复苏预期的乐观情绪迅速提升,并反映在中国相关资产的价格上涨上。
