spot price
spot price
Danh từ
Số nhiều: spot prices
This term is specific to finance and commodities trading, denoting the price for immediate transaction and delivery. It stands in direct contrast to the futures price, which is the agreed-upon price for an asset to be delivered at a specific date in the future.
In professional trading contexts, the spot price is highly volatile and fluctuates in real-time based on current supply and demand. It is the benchmark used to determine the value of a commodity at any given moment, whereas futures contracts hedge against the risk of that price changing over time.
