Derivatives: What is good to know before investing?

Image
  Derivatives are essentially contracts whose value is derived from the underlying asset. The underlying asset can be a financial asset or a commodity. The value of the underlying asset is constantly changing according to market conditions. Financial Derivatives:  Derivatives derived from financial assets are known as financial derivatives. Financial assets include stocks, interest rates, currencies, index, etc. For example, stocks are derivatives whose underlying asset is the stock. Commodity Derivatives:  Commodity derivatives are derived from a physical commodity. A physical commodity means commodities like oil, milk, etc. For example, if the price of milk increases, the price of ice cream and butter will increase. In this case, milk is the underlying asset and a change in the price of the asset changes the price of things derived from it. Similarly, if the price of crude oil increases, so will the price of petrol and diesel. Crude oil is the underlying asset and gasoline and diesel

Concept of Demand

Image
 The fundamental question which economic theory explains is:  why it is that goods have low prices and why some goods are expensive while others are cheaper. The broad answer is that goods have prices because, on the one hand, they are useful and, on the other hand, they are scarce in relation to the amount which people will like to have. People will not be prepared to pay a price for the goods unless they are useful to them.  Similarly, goods may be very useful, but if they are freely available in an unlimited amount, they cannot command a price. For example, air is very useful to us, but it is not scarce and hence it cannot command a price. Goods like air, which are gifts of nature, are known as ‘free goods’ and they do not have a price. By contrast, economic goods are scarce and command a price. Thus, economic goods have a price because they are useful as well as scarce in availability. It is only because economic goods are useful that they are demanded by buyers, and only because t

Development of UV Photo Detector : ZnO nanostructure

Image
Nanoscale materials have shown unprecedented capabilities in the emerging technologies ranging from solar energy harvesting to biosensing. New applications for  nanophotonics  and  nanoelectronics  are been inspired by the development of defect-free low-dimensional nanostructures.To assess their potential capabilities is particularly important to uncover their new and interesting properties and characteristics concerning electronic transport, light emission and photo-detection.  The low dimensionality and the high surface-to –volume ratio play a fundamental role in the overall  photo-detection performance . An important attribute of photoconductors is their ability to produce gain in the excess of one that is the generation of more than one electron in an external circuit for each absorbed photons. The direct band-gap materials other than  ZnO  have a lower propensity to trap charge carriers, and nanostructures of these materials are, in general, capable of more rapid responses. Detect
