question 25

Essay

In all futures contracts, even commodity futures, only 1% to 3% of futures contracts are delivered. That is, at expiration, the party that originally purchased a futures contract has sold a futures contract to offset their position. Since most market participants do not deliver or receive delivery of the contract, does this mean that most futures markets participants are speculators?
