Volatility, volume, and the notion of balance in the S&P 500-cash and futures markets

Article Abstract:

The existence of an optimal relationship between trade volume in cash and futures markets is examined, together with the impact of this relationship on price volatility and stability in cash markets. Results revealed that the ratio of the daily trading value of Standard and Poor's futures contracts and those of the New York Stock Exchange's stocks averages at 1. Lower price volatility occurs when the expected ratio of futures trading and cash trading is higher.
