It facilitates speculation by providing opportunity to people, although not
involved with the commodity, to trade on the views in the movement of
commodity prices.
(2)Hedging:
For the people associated with commodities, the Futures market can
provide an effective hedging mechanism against price movements. For
example an oil-seed farmer may go short in oil-seed futures, thus ‘locking’
his sale price and in the process hedging against any adverse price risks.
• Also, there is a saying that ‘Gold, is the safe haven’. Thus, gold can be
used as a hedging tool against other investments.

different prices between the two exchanges or between different
maturities in the same underlying.
