What is a futures contract?

A futures contract is a complex type of investment that bets on the future performance of an asset or commodity. With a futures contract, the investor has the right to purchase or sell that underlying asset at a specific price and point in time.

The complexity and speculative nature of futures contracts make them unsuitable investments for most investors.
