 Option: A contract that gives the owner the right, if exercised, to buy or sell a security or basket of securities (index) at a specific price within a specific time limit. Usually, they are traded as securities themselves, with buyers and sellers trying to profit from price changes. They are generally available for 1 to 9 months, with some longer term options (called LEAPS) also available for selected securities. Stock option contracts are generally for the right to buy or sell 100 shares of the underlying stock (100 is the multiplier). Trading in options should only be undertaken by sophisticated investors.
