Speculation
Speculation involves the buying, holding, and selling of stocks, commodities, futures contract, currencies, collectibles, real estate, or any valuable thing to profit from fluctuations in its price as opposed to buying it for use or for income ( via dividends, rent etc). Speculation or agiotage represents one of three market roles in western financial markets, distinct from hedging and arbitrage.
