Abstract

While prior studies find that returns on straddles constructing before earning announcements are positive in U.S. equity option market, we further investigate and find that returns on straddle constructing before earning announcement are positive in London Stock Exchange either. The logic behind this positive return while return on straddles are generally negative is option traders underestimate volatility of upcoming earning announcement period due to recency bias.
