Securities are financial instruments that represent an ownership position, a creditor relationship, or rights to ownership. They are a way for entities (such as corporations, governments, or other organizations) to raise capital by selling these instruments to investors. Securities are broadly categorized into three types:
1. Equity Securities: These represent ownership in a company. The most common example is stocks. When you buy a stock, you own a share of the company and may benefit from dividends or capital appreciation if the company's value grows.
2. Debt Securities: These are instruments where the issuer borrows funds from the investor and agrees to pay them back with interest. Examples include bonds, notes, and debentures. Bondholders do not own the company but are creditors entitled to repayment.
3. Derivative Securities: These derive their value from an underlying asset, such as a stock, bond, or commodity. Examples include options, futures contracts, and swaps. They are often used for hedging risks or speculative purposes.
Securities are traded in financial markets, such as stock exchanges, and are regulated to ensure transparency, fairness, and the protection of investors.
Commodities are basic goods or raw materials that are interchangeable with other goods of the same type. They are typically used as inputs in the production of other goods or services. Commodities are traded on markets and are categorized into two main types:
1. Hard Commodities: These are natural resources that are mined or extracted, such as:
Oil
Gold
Silver
Copper
2. Soft Commodities: These are agricultural or livestock products that are grown or raised, such as:
Wheat
Coffee
Cotton
Cattle
Characteristics of Commodities:
Fungibility: A commodity is considered interchangeable, meaning that one unit of a commodity is essentially the same as another (e.g., one barrel of oil is the same as another of the same grade).
Standardization: Commodities are usually graded or standardized to ensure quality and uniformity in trading.
Global Market: They are traded on international exchanges, such as the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) or the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT).
Investors and businesses often trade commodities as a way to hedge against inflation, diversify their portfolios, or speculate on price movements.
Personally I'm a fan of spending and replenishing, but hey everyone do whatever they want. It's your money.
Hoading it isn't any different than not having any at all. What's the point of having it if you don't spend and enjoy it?
