What are options in finance?

Options are financial derivatives that give the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset—such as stocks—at a specified price before a certain date. There are two main types: call options, which allow buying the asset, and put options, which allow selling it. Options are commonly used for hedging, speculation, or income strategies in investment portfolios. Their value is influenced by factors like the underlying asset price, volatility, time to expiration, and interest rates.
