Abstract: O estudo visa analisar as operações de cross hedge do bezerro na Bolsa de Mercadorias & Futuros (BM&F) com o intuito de avaliar a real necessidade da existência de contratos futuros para este animal. Para tanto, foram calculados o risco de base destas operações, as razões de hedge ótimas e as efetividades nas principais praças de comercialização de gado bovino do país entre setembro de 1995 e fevereiro de 2001. As mesmas análises foram realizadas para o hedge do boi gordo. A razão de hedge ótima se mos… Show more

“…Oliveira Neto and Figueiredo (2008) analyzed the live cattle hedging transactions in the futures market of the BM&F Goiás and found that the Myers and Thompson (1989) model was the most efficient, with a risk decrease of approximately 90%. Zilli et al (2008) estimated the optimal hedge ratio using the error correction mechanism (ECM) for daily, weekly, and monthly data and found that the optimal hedge ratio is very sensitive to the data frequency and that it presents better indexes when ECM is inserted into the estimation process, confirming that non-stationary series can provide erroneous estimates for the optimal hedge ratio when the cointegration relationships among the variables are not considered.…”

“…Assim, seu entendimento ou previsão tornam-se fatores de fundamental importância para o hedger, principalmente para que este assuma suas posições nos diferentes mercados. Desta forma, segundo Silveira (2003), os agentes devem definir uma proporção de suas posições à vista que irão assumir no mercado futuro, minimizando, assim, os riscos inerentes às variações nos preços de sua carteira. Tal proporção é conhecida como razão de hedge de mínima variância.…”
