As discussed: - AAPL Monday outperformance vs. SPY has become more persistent in the recent past, after the CBOE weekly options on AAPL were first listed (June 2010) - This outperformance might be perceived to be tied to hedging of new positions on Monday -A strategy that is long AAPL vs short SPY on Mondays would have produced an annualized return of 30.6% since 2011, with a sharpe ratio of 2.67 - In the period between 2008 and 2010, this strategy would have returned 11.5% with a sharpe ratio of 0.81 Per your question at the meeting, we also obtained the volume history for near expiry options as well as other expiries. The graph below is the 4-week moving average of daily volume for both of these sets - it illustrates the volumes on both options have increased recently. The attached presentation goes into further details on the transaction, as well as a variation of the strategy focusing on Friday performance.
