What is the primary reason that a delta-neutral hedge requires 'dynamic' rebalancing over time?

  1. The delta of the option changes as the underlying asset price moves (gamma).
  2. The underlying asset's volatility is constant, which forces the delta to drift.
  3. The exchange requires daily rebalancing to maintain margin requirements.
  4. The risk-free rate fluctuates daily, changing the present value of the strike price.
