What impact does glass futures have on Fujian Glass Spot Chamber of Commerce? Is it good or bad? How to deal with it?

For small enterprises, I think the advantages of listed glass futures outweigh the disadvantages, because futures are a hedging tool, and the unique hedging strategy of futures can avoid price fluctuations in the spot market, thus avoiding losses for enterprises.

As there are no contract details of glass futures at present, I can only take soybean varieties as an example. In July, the spot price of soybean was 20 10 yuan per ton. A farm is satisfied with the price, but soybeans will not be sold until September, so the unit is worried that the spot price may fall by then, thus reducing its income. In order to avoid the risk of future price decline, the farm decided to trade soybean futures:

In the spot market, the soybean price in July was 20 10 yuan/ton, and in the futures market, the soybean contract was clinched in September 10 lot: the price was 2080 yuan/ton.

Soybean sold in September100t: price 1980 yuan/ton; In September, I bought 10 lot of soybeans: the price is 2050 yuan/ton.

Futures result loss 30 yuan/ton profit 30 yuan/ton.

The final net profit is 100*30- 100*30=0 yuan.

1 batch = 10 ton

In this way, the risk caused by price fluctuation is avoided. Of course, this example only shows how to hedge futures, and other costs should be considered in the specific operation.

Another point is that after the listing of glass futures, enterprises can judge the future price trend according to the futures market, instead of relying on other channels to inquire before.
