Which one of the following statements is correct if a speculator short sells a commodity or financial futures contract?

▸ The speculator expects to profit from a decline in the price of the contract.

▸ The speculator stands to make an unlimited amount of profit since there is no limit to how high the price of the underlying commodity or financial instrument can rise.

▸ The speculator is hoping to gain some of the benefit derived from the volatile price while limiting his/her exposure to loss.

▸ The speculator may be hedging if the underlying commodity is not in the speculator's possession.
