In finance, a futures contract (more colloquially, futures) is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset for a price agreed upon today (the futures price) with delivery and payment occurring at a future point, the delivery date.
Definition. Market in which participants can buy and sell commodities and their future delivery contracts. A futures market provides a medium for the complementary activities of hedging and speculation, necessary for dampening wild fluctuations in the prices caused by gluts and shortages.earby Terms. 1  future value. 2  future value of... 3  future value of... 4  futures. 5  Futures Commiss... 6  futures contrac... 7  futures contrac... 8  futures exchang... 9  futures market. 10  futurology. 11  fuzzy logic. 12  fuzzy search. 13  G-8 Finance Min... 14  gadfly. 15  gage repeatabil... 16  Gaia hypothesis. 17  gain.
