Constantine purchased 100 shares of IBM stock several years ago for $150 per share. The price of these shares has fallen to $55 per share. Constantine's investment strategy is "buy low, sell high." Therefore, he will not sell his IBM stock until the price rises above $150 per share. If he sells at a price lower than $150 per share he will have "bought high and sold low." Constantine's decision:A) is correct and shows a solid command of the nature of opportunity cost B) is incorrect because the original price paid for the shares is a sunk cost and should have no bearing on whether the shares should be held or sold. C) is incorrect because when the price of a stock falls, the law of demand states that he should buy more shares D) is incorrect because it treats the price of the shares as an explicit cost.

You manage a portfolio worth $13.8 million, currently all invested in equities, and believe that the market is on the verge of a big but short-lived downturn. You would move your portfolio temporarily into T-bills, but you do not want to incur the transaction costs of liquidating and reestablishing your equity position. Instead, you decide to temporarily hedge your equity holdings with E-mini S&P 500 index futures contracts.

1) Should you be long or short the contracts? Why?

2) How many contracts should you enter into? The S&P 500 index futures price is now at 1286 and the contract multiplier is $250.

3) Suppose instead of reducing your portfolio beta all the way down to zero, you decide to reduce it to 0.5, how many index futures contracts should you enter into?
