INDUSTRY TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW:


Aberration: A deviation from what is normal, expected or usual that caused a significant reversal or change in trend.


Actuals: Te physical commodity that underlies a futures contract or is trad- ed in the physical market.


Regulatory Risk: Te risk that a change in laws and regulations will materially impact a security, business, sector or market. A change in laws or regulations made by the government or a regulatory body can increase the operating costs of a business, reduce the attractiveness of investment and/ or change the competitive landscape.


Cyclical Risk: Te risk of business cycles or other economic cycles adversely affecting the returns on an investment, an asset class or an indi- vidual company’s profits. Cyclical risks exist because the broad economy has been shown to move in cycles – periods of peak performance followed by a downturn, then a trough of low activity. Between the peak and trough of a business or other economic cycle, investments may fall in value to reflect the uncertainty surrounding future returns as compared with the recent past. Cyclical risk can also be tied to inflationary risks, as some investors consider inflation to be cyclical in nature.


Seasonal Industry: A subset of com- panies that earn the majority of their income during a small part of the year because of factors such as weath- er, holidays and/or customs. Te businesses in a seasonal industry will make little or no money outside of the season that their business revolves around. Tese businesses must either make enough money during their seasons to last the business owners throughout the year, or the business owners must have other sources of income to sustain them during the off season.
