Geometric Brownian Motion In Share Price Analysis Geometric Brownian Motion is considered to be one of the most useful and easy way of modelling the expected future price of stocks and indices. It is also known as a lognormal process of analysis. Over the span of time, it has become one of the most widely accepted models for forecasting. Also know as Wiener process, it was first applied in physics to describe the motion of a particle that is subject to a large number of small molecular shocks and was called Brownian motion (Hull, 2000). The mathematical description of the process was later developed by Wiener. Gradually, this concept was introduced in financial domain. The model assumes the fact that the stock prices follow a random movement as it happens with molecules. These movements take into account the existing information and also the past experience while determining the stock price in future. Hence, the present value of the share or index plays the most important role in predicting the future price. The Black Sholes Model for pricing options also takes into account the geometric Brownian motion of share prices. This model provides a quite simple analytical evaluation for asymmetric risk. The prime assumption of this model is similar to that of ‘efficient market hypothesis’, which says that Simple models of asset prices assume that (i) The past history is fully reflected in the present price (ii) The present price is affected only by new information about the asset This means that knowing the past history of an asset price movement gives no additional information about its future value that is already contained in its current value. Choice for Study The S&P 500 Index has been chosen for analysis with a perspective that it was one of the most volatile indexes during the sub prime crisis. This also has all the major banks listed which impacted the financial market in a big way. The aim of choosing this index for analysis would prove if the trends in the initial month of 2008 could predict the further downslide that happened in the mid of 2008 and beginning of 2009. Also this analysis aims to check if the slight upside in the later part of 2009 could be predicted through the model. Citigroup has been selected as a choice of study of the share price. Citibank was one of the most badly hit banks in the crisis. As already mentioned above, the aim of this study was to critically evaluate if Geometric Brownian Motion Model, could predict the crashing stock price for Citigroup. Historical Volatility and GBM Model for S&P 500 For S&P 500, the total number of days in the calendar year was taken as 365. The data was collected from 1st of January 2008 to 31st December 2009. The historical volatility was computed with an interval of 50 days. The average volatility for the complete range of data was 38.45. The collected prices , is said to follow a GBM with drift parameter and volatility parameter , if for all non-negative values of t and , the random variable is independent of all prices up to time t, and if in addition, the relative change in the asset price or return, , is a normal random variable with mean and variance . Provided is not too large so that the change in the price could be assumed small, may be approximated by , and we say that the ratio of future price to its present value follows a lognormal probability distribution with mean and variance . The volatility graph for S&P is given in the figure below. A GBM model analysis was done, where the drift factor was considered to be about 10 percent. The distribution of the price is found to be almost normal with a trend of being positively skewed. Actual Price versus GBM Model Price For S&P 500 An analysis was done to check the validity of GBM model versus the actual price movement over the span of entire period. The figure below brings more clarity to the analysis. The above figure shows that there are deviations in both the prices. However, the trend is almost similar, especially during the downturns. A closer look at the prices during the crisis shows that the model at times can exaggerate the prices however is conservative during the sliding prices. At some instances, the downslide was predicted much before. Historical Volatility and GBM Model for Citigroup Inc A similar analysis was done for Citigroup shares, which is a component in the S&P 500 Index. The days in the calendar year was taken as 250 trading days for the ease of calculating the option prices. The data was collected from 1st of January 2008 to 29th march 2010. The historical volatility was computed with an interval of 50 days. The average volatility for the complete range of data was 41.55% The findings were almost similar as that of the Index. The GBM prices are depicted in the figure below. The histogram shows that the prices are also normally distributed. Black Scholes Model for Option Pricing- Citigroup Inc A call was selected which is trading at $ 5 strike price. A similar put was taken for analysis with the same strike price. Both the call and the put are expiring on 16th April 2010. The call price was computed in excel with the following formula in mind. , (2) where, , , and denote the standard normal distribution function: and . In the above, is price of the asset today; T is time to expiration (years); X is the strike price; r is the risk-free interest rate (assumed constant); is the volatility parameter (also constant). The put price was computed with call put parity. The figures found after analysis are as follows. Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model Inputs: Stock Price (S) $4.18 Strike Price (X) $5.00 Volatility () 50.20% Risk-free Rate 5.00% Time to expiration (T) 0.047222222 yrs Dividend Yield 0.00% # of Options (000) 1 Tax Rate 30.00% Output: D1 -1.56585 D2 -1.67494 N(D1) 0.05869 N(D2) 0.04697 Call Price $0.01102 Put Price $0.81923 Value of Call Options (000) $0.01 After-tax Option Value (000) $0.01 Actual Call Price $0.03 Actual Put Price $0.83 Though the call price was trading above the model price, the put price is hovering almost at the expected level. Conclusion Though GBM is considered to be one of the most practical way of predicting prices for the distant time horizon, it may often fail in predicting the exact price. This can be due to the fact that sometimes information takes time to be readily available to all investors. For example, during the sub prime crisis, there were people in the industry who were aware of the upcoming havoc. However, this information was not available to many people, especially the small investors. Hence, the gradual exit of few people from the market might not have brought in a general selling trend for a long time. Hence, it can be concluded that GBM model can be used as a supporting analysis along with other fundamental analysis.
