What is hedging?

The verb to hedge can be used to mean avoiding a direct response, or it can mean counterbalancing against a possible loss (e.g. hedging one's bets). The second meaning is applied to investment strategy.Hedging is a process that is used to reduce risk of loss against negative outcomes within the stock market. Hedging is a similar concept to home insurance, where you might protect yourself against negative outcomes by purchasing fire and peril insurance. The only difference with hedging is that you are insuring against market risks and you are never fully compensated for your loss. This occurs when one investment is hedged through the purchase of another investment. Hedging is most useful under the following circumstances:- Those who have commodity investment that are subject to price movements can use hedging as a risk management technique- Hedging helps set a price level for purchase or sale of an asset prior to that transaction occurring- Hedging also makes it possible to experience gains from any upward price fluctuations to protect against downward price movements.
