   Conclusions
  • Callaway Golf currently uses option strategies in its currency hedging.  Therefore, although the fractional futures hedge is the least costly, it is not the most desirable.
  •  Based on our market views, our risk parameters, and the cost of establishing an option-based hedging strategy, we recommend the Synthetic Bull Spread.
  • While the Synthetic Short Strangle is also appealing in that it is profitable at the current Yen futures price, if the Yen volatility is to increase dramatically, we may experience some rather unfavorable outcomes.
