1.3.5.2. Speculation

Like arbitrageurs, speculators have no interest in holding the asset they trade in but are only interested in the fluctuation of its price. Whereas arbitrage is a risk-free strategy of buying and selling the same product at the same time, speculation is an activity that accepts an increased risk to capture anticipated future gains. Speculators place a bet on the future price direction of an asset for resale or repurchase at a later date.

TESTIMONIALS

I initially studied using a different exam prep course (The Securities Institute of America). I waited until I consistently passed the practice exams with a score over 90% before I took the actual exam and unfortunately I failed the exam on my first attempt. I discovered and purchased the Solomon Exam Prep and immediately noticed the studying material was more in depth. I waited until my practice exam score was consistently over 85% and I went to take the actual exam and passed. Thank you so much!! (Series 3)

Great service, practice questions and mock exams were the key to passing. (Series 3)

I would heartily recommend Solomon for anyone studying for the Series 3. The materials are comprehensive, the bank of questions vast and the responsiveness to questions incredibly impressive and detailed. I passed first time and that in no small part is down to Solomon.

After trying numerous study materials, Solomon was the key to pass my Series 24. The live class was a perfect complement. Thank you Karen for your assistance!
