stock-index futures
Stock-index futures are future contracts where the underlying asset is a stock index. These contracts represent an agreement to buy or sell the value of the underlying index at a specific future date. The value of the contract depends on the price movements of the index, enabling investors to speculate on the direction of the stock market or hedge against potential losses. They’re typically cash-settled, meaning physical delivery of assets is not involved.
