Abstract

O presente estudo tem como objetivo, usando simulações, analisar as operações de hedge com contratos de boi gordo da Bolsa de Mercadorias & Futuros (BM&F). As simulações compreenderam o período de 2001 a 2006, sendo que em todos os anos os contratos simulados são do mesmo vencimento, outubro com entrada na operação no mês de março, em três estados diferentes: São Paulo, Paraná e Mato Grosso do Sul. A estratégia de utilização do mercado futuro mostrou-se viável, desde que acompanhada do conhecimento de fatores que interferem no mecanismo de comercialização: o comportamento da base e do risco de base em cada região. O conhecimento e o acompanhamento destes fatores, através dos anos, tem fundamental importância na tomada de decisão para operações no mercado futuro de boi gordo. The present has as purpose analyzing, through simulations, the hedge operations with cattle contracts from the Bolsa de Mercadorias & Futuros (BM&F) – Brazil. The simulations covered the period from 2001 to 2006, and in every year the simulated contracts are for the same delivery month, October, with operation beginning in March, in three different Brazilian Sates: São Paulo, Paraná and Mato Grosso do Sul. The strategy of using futures markets was reliable, but need to be followed by knowledge about factors which interfere in the marketing mechanisms: the basis behavior and the basis risk in each region. These factors knowledge and attendance, throughout the years, has a fundamental role in the decision making for operations in the live cattle futures markets.
