A brief descri"tion of commodit& e0c!anges are t!ose w!ic! trade in "articular
commodities neglecting t!e trade of securities stock inde0 futures and o"tions etc.
In t!e middle of 1-t! centur& in t!e Enited tates businessmen began organi/ing market
forums to make t!e bu&ing and selling of commodities easier. T!ese central market"laces
"ro%ided a "lace for bu&ers and sellers to meet set Bualit& and Buantit& standards and
establis! rules of business.
Agricultural commodities were mostl& traded but as long as t!ere are bu&ers and sellers
an& commodit& can be traded. In 1,+2 a grou" of (an!attan dair& merc!ants got
toget!er to bring c!aotic condition in =ew ork market to a s&stem in terms of storage

S-!"l#o/& If a futures market is restricted to !edgers alone it is Buite concei%able t!at
one or ot!er grou" of !edgers would be unable to !edge wit!out distorting t!e "rice
because of t!e absence of counter "arties to t!e transactions. It is !ere t!at t!e role of t!e

and "ro%ide liBuidit&. T!e s"eculators !a%e no s"ecific interest in t!e commodit& rat!er
t!e& are risk seekers w!ose interest stems from t!e "rofit w!ic! t!e& e0"ect to make from
assuming t!e "rice risk.
Let us see t!e main use of s"eculation we can sa& &es as t!ere can be no effecti%e
!edging since t!e %olume of demand for long and s!ort !edging will not be eBual e0ce"t
b& occasional coincidence. It must be noted t!at t!e "ractice of s"eculation b&
facilitating !edging reduces t!e costs of marketing. econdl& s"eculati%e acti%it&
increases t!e liBuidit& of markets t!ereb& enabling !edgers to transact large %olumes of

good or asset in two different markets in order to ac!ie%e a risk less "rofit t!roug! t!e
difference in "rice between t!em. In a broadest sense we can sa& an arbitrageur is one
w!o trades onl& to reali/e "rofits from discre"ancies in t!e market. #f course in "ractice
t!e arbitrageur is not a se"arate "erson8 eit!er a !edger or a s"eculator can indulge in
arbitrage w!en t!e o""ortunit& arises. Arbitrage "la&s a big role in ensuring t!at "rices in
futures markets do not di%erge from t!e le%el dictated b& su""l& and demand and in
ensuring s"eed& correction of an& "ricing anomalies.
