What happens when you Short a call option?

"Shorting a call" is better known as writing a naked call. Basically, a naked call is a call on a position you don't hold, and it has unlimited risk--if you get exercised and the strike price plus the premium is lower than the stock price, you must make up the difference out of your margin account--or you'll receive a margin call from your brokerage. Many brokerages won't allow you to write a naked call, and the ones that will demand a very large margin account and a lot of experience in trading options.

How big is one pound of gold?

This is all based on pure 24 ct gold (if it's not, it gets more complicated because different alloys may alter weights): 1 x CC (cubic centimeter ) of water = 1 gm (gram)

1 x CC of gold = 19.3 gm

1 Pound (Avo) = 453.592 gm

453.592 divided by 19.3 = 23.5021 cubic centimeters of gold.

So, working all that out into a rough rectangle, 1 pound of gold is approximately 4cm wide x 4cm long x 1.5cm high.

Who is a door to door retailers?

The day of door-to-door selling has largely ended. Too many communities have banned it. A door-to-door salesman was just what he sounded like: a man (it usually was a man) who walked down the street with a case of samples, knocked on every door and asked if the lady of the house would like to buy some of whatever he was selling. There are some direct sales forces out there. Kirby vacuums are sold this way, and so are Avon and Mary Kay cosmetics. But today, you have to call one of these people and ask them to come to your home.

When and how did the stock market originate?

The origin of stock markets goes back a couple of centuries. The roots

of stock markets are to be found at the beginnings of the Industrial

Revolution that began in Europe about four centuries ago. Many of the

pioneer merchants of the industrial age wanted to start huge

businesses, which no single merchant could raise alone. It therefore

became inevitable for them to come together, pool their savings and

start these businesses as partners or co-owners. The contribution of

each partner to the enterprise was to be represented by a unit of

ownership. This was the precursor of shares.

And through this, 'joint stock' companies were born.

Initially, trading in shares began as informal "hawking" in the streets

of London. As the volume of shares increased with more companies

floating shares (giving people opportunities to buy their shares), the

need for an organized marketplace for the exchange of these shares

escalated. As a result, these traders decided to be meeting at a

coffeehouse, which they used as the marketplace. Eventually, they

took over the coffeehouse and changed its name to 'stock exchange'.

other instruments like bonds were then to follow suit as an inevitable

Registering a Serial number on a silver bar?

Some silver bars do come with a serial number stamped on them, many however, do not. The serial number is primarily there as a reference back to the manufacturer and is commonly seen as "evidence of purity", though this is not needed as the bars will most likely have a stamp of purity ( .999 Fine Silver ) and the weight (commonly 1 Troy oz, 10 oz, 100 oz, 1000 oz or in some cases the weight will be in grams) of the bar stamped on it as well. As a general rule, most private owners do no register their silver or gold bars with anyone. In fact, there is no place to register them at all. Private owners are more concerned with privacy and the anonymity of ownership. This is one of the chief advantages of owning silver bullion - it is a very secret store of wealth. The advantages to this privacy for the owner are:

  • It cannot be taxed
  • It cannot be tracked
  • It can be sold easily, in exchange for cash in any currency
  • It is transportable - you can move it with you
Silver and other precious metals like gold, platinum or palladium provide a very compact and mobile store of your wealth that is less likely to feel the effects of inflation or recession.

What is value of ten ounce silver bar?

Some bullion merchants will rely on a 'fix' price (i.e. set once a day (twice, for gold) by the London Bullion Market Association), while others rely on a constantly-varying 'spot' price.

Of course, in order to make a living, merchants have to buy at slightly less than the official price (if you are offered less than 95% of the actual price, go elsewhere) and sell at more than the official price (about 110-120% of the price is standard; in some countries such as the UK there is additionally a 17.5% tax on silver which is not payable on gold, hence expect to pay up to 140% of the official price).
