单词 | index futures |
释义 | index futures A futures contract on a financial futures market, such as the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange, which offers facilities for trading in futures and options on a financial index as for example the FT-SE 100 Index and the FT-SE Eurotrack 100 Index (see Financial Times Share Indexes). On the FT-SE 100 Index the trading unit is £25 per index point; thus if a futures contract is purchased when the index stands at 2400, say, the buyer is covering an equivalent purchase of equities of £60,000 (£25 * 2400). If the index rises 100 points the purchaser can sell a matching futures contract at this level, making a profit of £2500 (£25 * 100). On the FT-SE Eurotrack 100 Index the trading unit is DM100 per index point. See also: |
