Zoom Video Greeks

Most traded equities are subject to two types of risk - systematic (i.e., market) and unsystematic (i.e., nonmarket or company-specific) risk. Unsystematic risk is the risk that events specific to Zoom Video or Software sector will adversely affect the stock's price. This type of risk can be diversified away by owning several different stocks in different industries whose stock prices have shown a small correlation to each other. On the other hand, systematic risk is the risk that Zoom Video's price will be affected by overall stock market movements and cannot be diversified away. So, no matter how many positions you have, you cannot eliminate market risk. However, you can measure a Zoom stock's historical response to market movements and buy it if you are comfortable with its volatility direction. Beta and standard deviation are two commonly used measures to help you make the right decision.

Zoom Video Volatility Alert

Zoom Video Communications exhibits very low volatility with skewness of 1.18 and kurtosis of 5.18. Understanding different market volatility trends often help investors to time the market. Properly using volatility indicators enable traders to measure Zoom Video's stock risk against market volatility during both bullish and bearish trends. The higher level of volatility that comes with bear markets can directly impact Zoom Video's stock price while adding stress to investors as they watch their shares' value plummet. This usually forces investors to rebalance their portfolios by buying different financial instruments as prices fall.

Zoom Video Implied Volatility

Zoom Video's implied volatility exposes the market's sentiment of Zoom Video Communications stock's possible movements over time. However, it does not forecast the overall direction of its price. In a nutshell, if Zoom Video's implied volatility is high, the market thinks the stock has potential for high price swings in either direction. On the other hand, the low implied volatility suggests that Zoom Video stock will not fluctuate a lot when Zoom Video's options are near their expiration.
