    Författare :Davide Brugola; [2019]
    Nyckelord :single stocks; options; implied volatility skew; jumps; earnings announcements;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we try to understand whether the observed implied volatility skew of single stock options is significantly related to the probability of observing future return jumps in the underlying single stock.
