Oil Futures & Option Markets: The “Message from Markets"
Description:
One of the fascinating roles energy prices serve is to convey quantitative information about ongoing events. I propose a discussion of how energy prices convey information about current events, how they quantify the different crises – geopolitical and economic – which we encounter, and how they permit contrasts with other crises. This essential role of quantifying the depth and intensity of any given crisis may be termed the “Message from Markets.” in which financial theory proves useful, practical and applicable.
