Derivatives | Marketplace Whiteboard 

Creating wealth entails establishing positive routines, I had only $78k to my name at 42 when I first woke up to this reality. I chose the stock market as a medium of growth, got an excellent financial advisor, Financial management is a vital subject that many avoid, often leading to future regrets.

The smartest people explain things in the simplest terms.

You're arguably the only person on RU-vid who doesn't waste even a nanosecond to advertise his channel and gets right into the incredibly worthy content. I LOVE your videos! Thank you so very much ♥️

I was looking for calculus, but...I think I'll start a drug empire now; thanks!

Great Down-to-Earth Examples nicely explained by someone who actually really looks like he wants to teach people. Best I came across! Keep it up and thanks a lot.

The markets are still unsure if the Federal Reserve will continue to its plan to raise interest rates until inflation is under control, despite the fact that bond yields are rising while stock prices are falling. What is the greatest strategy to take advantage of the current bear market while I'm still deciding whether to sell my $401k worth of stocks?

This is the best explanation I have ever come across. Well done

great explanation. So basically the counter party risk regarding derivatives are that underlying assets can be worth a lot less at a later date.

I love it when he tosses the maker. beautifully well explained. #dropthemic.

+Marketplace APM What's great about your explanations is that you don't rely on jargon. Most other tutorials will reference concepts as if you already know what they are. This is great for newbies. Thanks for this!

Even 10 years later I learned more economics from watching a few of these videos than all of my years in high school.

I’ve been in the financial services industry for almost a decade and I love how this man explains otherwise very complex instruments and concepts. I listen to it so that I can keep that concept in mind when explaining these concepts to clients. Great channel!

You have always been able to explain things succinctly and hold my interest. I've been enjoying this entire series.

I have listened to about five different lecturers without understanding what derivative is but this is the one that has been explained smartly.

Thank you for making this video. I totally truly have a better understanding on how derivatives work now. Nicely done!.

I am only 13 and I understood everything in your video! You are amazing at explaining economics!

I watched seven minutes before realizing this isn't about math derivatives...

Love it! That's the best explanation I've heard about derivatives in ages. There was an old saying "no one born before 1970's understands what derivatives are..".

Sir , you are a champion . The world needs teachers like you . Kudos to the videos !!

Excellent explanation! This is the first time I have seen this derivative problem explained in such detail. Thank you.

i was reeling badly and needing a drink trying to understand wall street until i stumbled upon this legend, thank you good sir!

Really enjoying these white board lessons. Thank you for sharing!

I've watched many videos and this is the best explanation yet. Very well done. You're appreciated and keep it up

WOW!!! Thank you so much for explaining that in a simplified way that's easy to understand

This was seriously such a great video! I went from understanding little to nothing about derivatives to knowing the concept like the back of my hand! Thank you so much, you made quite a lot easier for me in terms of school. I'm definitely subbed!

You are literally the best finance professor i have ever listened to. I don't think i have ever told an individual this... Your diagrams are amazingly clear and i like how you use a diagram to explain the whole concept. You really know what your talking about and i can't say i was bored listening to this video one bit. Thanks for the great video! also i was wondering if it is possible if you could make a video on algorithms ?

Watching this is refreshing in 2023. Amazing stuff

I am Sincerely grateful for your teaching methods.... Thank you!

@Ben Dreis Derivatives are supposed to give people a way to hedge against fluctuations of prices. For eg; the turkey may cost less than $15 in the future, and the forward contract they agreed upon would benefit the farmer, while Terry secures the turkeys for thanksgiving. Of course, using an options contract in this case would benefit Terry more, since he may choose not to accept the delivery of the turkey in the future if supply is plentiful and prices of turkey in the markets are below $15; in which case he forfeits the $50 he paid for the option and purchase the turkey from the market instead. Although useful as a tool for risk management, it can be used for speculation as well. Why the need for complication? Such contracts exists since the birth of capitalism, and many businesses are able to benefit from it. For example, if you run a restaurant, you would usually place orders for your inventory in advance at a slated price. This is similar to a forward contract. The only difference is that people discovered they can strike gold by gambling with these contracts.

Excellent presentation

He , Mr Hirsch , knows his trade and has the charisma of transmitting his knowledge to his auditor.

I was looking for a wholesome description of what the derivatives market is, how it funcions, the scale and use of it, why it's several times larger than the combined net worth of the entire world, and why several people say it's extremely dangerous in it's current practice. This video provided me with the first half of what i was looking for. I'm now going to look through the other uploads of this channel to see if i find the rest, or anything else interresting. If anyone got a link, plz share

Thank you for your wonderful presentation
