In foreign exchange trading, a loss caused by an unfavorable difference in daily interest rates between the currencies being traded. Essentially, a trader earns interest on the currency that has been loaned out, and pays interest on the currency that has been borrowed. If the interest earned on the loaned currency is lower than the interest paid on the borrowed currency, the trader will have a rollover debit. |||Suppose a trader has borrowed 100,000 euros and loaned U.S. dollars (100,000 EUR/USD). Suppose also that the short term interest rate on euros is 3% and the rate on U.S. dollars is 2%. In this case, our trader is paying interest at 3% per annum on the borrowed euros, and only earning 2% per annum on the loaned U.S. dollars.
A slang term for the FTSE 100 index. The Footsie consists of 100 blue chip stocks that trade on the London Stock Exchange.
A system that allows a client to trade directly with another client, a market maker on Nasdaq, or a specialist on the floor of an exchange without broker interference. |||DAT is the preferred trading system for day traders, where success is dependent upon speed of execution. For the average investor, DAT is not necessary.
A transaction that is used when exercising employee stock options (ESO). Essentially, what you do here is borrow enough money from your broker to exercise the options. You then simultaneously sell enough shares to pay for the purchase, taxes, and broker commissions. What you are doing is technically called buying on margin. The brokerage lets you buy on margin in this case because they know there will be a quick repayment. The advantage of this technique is you don't need the cash on hand.
背书转让简介 背书转让,是指以转让票据权利为目的的背书行为。因为票据法规定,持票人将票据权利转让给他人,应当背书并交付票据。所以,当持票人为了转让票据权利,而在票据背面或者粘单上记载有关事项并签章,就是在进行背书转让。 背书转让一经成立,即发生法律效力,产生票据权利移转的效力、票据权利的证明效力和票据责任的担保效力等背书效力。 票据权利移转的效力。票据权利移转的效力是指票据上的一切权利由背书人转移于被背书人,被背书人因此而取代背书人成为票据上的权利人。这是转让背书所产生的主要效力,它不仅意味着移转因票据而产生的一切权利,包括对出票人的付款请求权、对背书人的偿还请求权、对票据保证人的请求权、对承兑人的付款请求权等,还意味着被背书人因背书而取得的一切票据权利,不受背书人权利瑕疵的影响,并受到票据抗辩限制的保护,使被背书人处于比普通债权人更强的地位。 票据权利的证明效力。票据权利的证明效力又叫资格授予效力,是指持票人如能证明其背书具有连续性,票据法上即推定其为正当持票人并享有票据上的一切权利。因此,转让背书成立以后,持票人请求付款人付款时,只需证明其票据背书在形式上具有连续性;付款人付款时只需审查票据背书是否具有连续性。如有证据证明持票人是出于恶意或者重大过失取得票据,则可以排除背书连续所产生的证明效力。 票据责任的担保效力。票据责任的担保效力是指背书人对于被背书人及其全体后手负有担保承兑和付款的责任。因为票据具有流通性,为了提高票据的兑付率,票据法特别规定背书人以背书转让票据后,即承担保证其后手所持票据承兑和付款的责任。同时票据法还规定,以背书转让的票据,后手应当对其直接前手背书的真实性负责。 目录 1背书交付 2背书转让的方式 3背书转让的法律效力 4转让限制 5汇票担保 背书交付 汇票以背书转让或以背书将一定的汇票权利授予他人行使时,必须记载被背书人的名称,个人须记本名,单位须记注册全称。只有在少数情况下,如继承、企业合并、破产受偿等情况可以是无记名汇票。 票据凭证不能满足背书人记载事项的需要,可以加附粘单,粘附于票据凭证之上。粘单上的第一记载人,应当在汇票和粘单的粘接处签章,粘章上的记载事项与汇票上的记载事项具有相同的法律效力,如果粘单上第一记载人没有在粘接处签章的,粘单上记载的事项无效。 背书转让的方式 通常在票据的背面,都事先印制好若干背书栏的位置,载明表示将票据权利转让给被背书人的文句,而留出背书人及被背书人的空白,供背书人进行背书时填写。票据法一般并不限制进行背书的次数,在背书栏或票据背面写满时,可以在票据上粘贴“粘单”进行背书。 背书应当由背书人签章并记载背书日期。如果未记载背书日期,视为在汇票到期日前背书。而且背书也必须记载被背书人名称。 背书转让的法律效力 背书转让无须经票据债务人同意。在票据背书转让时,行为人无须向票据债务人发出通知或经其承诺。只要持票人完成背书行为,就构成有效的票据权利转让。 背书转让的转让人不退出票据关系。背书转让后,转让人并不退出票据关系,而是由先前的票据权利人转变为票据义务人,并承担但保承兑和担保付款的责任。 背书转让具有更强的转让效力。通过背书的方式转让票据权利,能够使受让人得到更充分的保护。票据法设计了一系列特别的制度来保障票据受让人的权利,首先,受让人只需以背书连续的票据,就可以证明自己的合法权利人身份,而无须提供其他证明。其次,受让人可以对票据债务人主张前手对人抗辩的切断,从而使其享有的票据权利不受票据债务人与前手背书人之间抗辩事由的影响;再次,受让人可以主张善意取得。 转让限制 出票人在汇票上记载“不得转让”字样的,其后手在背书转让的,原背书人对后手的被背书人不承担保证责任。 汇票须完整转让,将汇票金额的一部分转让的背书,或将汇票金额分别转让给2人以上的背书无效。 背书不得附有条件,票据法规定,背书附有条件的,所附条件不具有汇票上的效力。 背书记载“委托收款”字样的,被背书人有权代背书人行使被委托的汇票权利。 汇票被拒绝承兑、被拒绝付款或超过付款提示期限的,不得背书转让;背书转让的,背书人应当承担汇票责任。 汇票担保 票据法第35条第2款规定,汇票可以设定质押,质押时应当以背书记载“质押”字样,被背书人依法实现质权时,可以行使汇票权利。
A gold-colored mineral that is often mistaken for real gold. Also known as Iron Pyrite. During historical periods of gold rushes, many less-than-knowledgeable miners would frequently believe that they hit the motherload upon finding a huge cache of fool's gold. Unfortunately, unlike the real stuff, fool's gold is relatively worthless.
A method of collecting the annual fees from investors in load funds through periodic deductions. These periodic deductions often are taken off of regular investor contributions to the fund to spread out the burden of the load fees over time. With a load spread option, a mutual fund investor is able to contribute a fixed amount of savings to the fund on a periodic basis (e.g. after each employment paycheck) and avoid having to pay a lump-sum load fee each year, since a portion of the fee is paid with each contribution.
Interest paid to a forex trader who holds a position overnight. An overnight position is one that is not closed on the same day, and is still open as of 5pm EST. If the interest rate on the currency that the trader purchased is higher than the interest rate on the currency that the trader is selling, she will receive a rollover credit based on the full value of the trade for the difference in interest rates. |||If the trader is buying a currency that has a lower interest rate than the currency the trader is selling and the trader holds the position overnight, she will have to pay interest. This is known as a rollover debit. Brokers automatically apply rollover credits or debits to traders’ accounts. Some investors take advantage of this aspect of forex trading and try to increase their returns by earning interest with rollover credits.
