Abstract

This note considers the hedging effectiveness of a dynamic hedge strategy as compared to the conventional OLS strategy. The conditions for the superiority of the OLS strategy are identified. It is argued that these conditions are frequently satisfied and therefore one expects to find the dominance of the OLS strategy over any dynamic strategy in the empirical work.

Suppose that spot and futures prices are generated from an errorcorrection model. This note demonstrates that, although the OLS model is misspecified, it provides a hedge ratio that usually outperforms the hedge ratio derived from the correct error-correction model.

## Abstract We characterize conditions under which the regime switching (RS) hedge strategy will perform better than the ordinary least squares (OLS) hedge strategy. The result can be extended to the case where the GARCH effects prevail. Specifically, these conditions would allow the RS‐GARCH hedge
