Arbitrage is leveraging one market off another.  European and Asian markets are open during different hours that US markets and how thing move in one affect the other.  Understanding how this works allows people to buy and sell in the best timeframe for profit taking.

Sorry but i have not heard of these. May i give you my guess.\n\nDirect shares: the investor is a stakeholder of the company; equity holder\n\nIndirect shares: probably means debentures and bonds. U still invest but in a passive manner.\n\n\nIf u feel that i am wrong, try loking up in the "How stuff Works" website

I don't think arbitrage exists in a truly efficient market. It's one of the mechanisms outside the market that makes them efficient. \n\nPerhaps you phrased it incorrectly and mean something else?

N'ayons pas peur de dire que l'arbitrage de la coupe du monde est vraiment mauvais. Je ne sais pas s'il est plus mauvais qu'avant, mais la différence est que maintenant le téléspectateur voit mieux l'action que l'arbitre lui même ce qui nous fait relever l'ensemble des erreurs d'arbitrage.\nConclusion: Adaptons l'arbitrage en le modernisant (vidéo) et sanctionnont les tricheurs, après le match s'il le faut. Enlevont les cartons injustifié et mettons en à ceux qui trichent sans que l'arbitre ne le voit mais dont l'anti-jeu est vu par toute la planète.

I'm asumming you are referring to purchasing stocks on different exchanges.  Sometimes there is a small spread difference, but arbritragers usually eliminate that very quickly.  Also, the fees may be slightly different.

Derivatives are contracts to sell or buy (or trade) some underlying asset, at some future point in time.\n\nFor example, let’s say Microsoft stock is selling on the market today at a price of $100 per share.  You and I enter into a contract in which I agree to buy 10 shares of Microsoft from you in two weeks.  We further agree that the price of that sale will be $100, no matter what the market price happens to be on that day.  Two weeks go by, and on the appointed day I transfer $1,000 dollars to you, in fulfillment of the contract, and you transfer 10 shares of Microsoft to me.\n\nIf the market price on that day is still $100 per share, then neither of us has profited or lost from the transaction.  But if the price has risen, say to $105 per share, I have come out ahead, because I have purchased shares worth $1,050 for a price of only $1,000.  I can turn around and immediately sell my shares on the market, thereby making a profit of $50 from our contract.  You, on the other hand, have suffered a $50 loss by selling your shares for $1,000 when they are really worth $1,050.\n\nHowever, if the price had dropped, say to $95 per share, I would still obligated to pay $1,000 for 10 shares.  Under this scenario, I would be buying shares that are only worth $950; therefore, I would take a $50 loss, and you would come out $50 ahead.\n\nAs you can see, derivatives contracts are essentially a form of gambling.  In the above example, I am betting that the price of Microsoft will rise over the intervening two weeks, and you are betting that it will fall.\n\nDerivatives are useful, primarily in hedging risk.  For example, say I am a farmer of green beans, and historically, green beans sell for about $10 a bushel, but this price varies widely depending on growing conditions in any particular year.  I might enter into a contract with a speculator to sell all my crop at a price of $9 per bushel.  In doing so, I guard against the possibility of a steep drop in the price that would wipe me out.  On the other side, the buyer accepts the risk of a drop below $9 per bushel, but will come out ahead if the price is greater than that, because he will turn around and sell my green beans at that greater price.

simply the smaller underwriters in an equity or bond offering. the bookrunners are at the top of the tree. they collect names of investors putting money up for bonds/equity, one of them or two of them get that role. the next step is underwriters(of which the bookrunners are in that category). they will prob take 80% of a deal. the subunderwrites are smaller players or regional players(mostly but not always) and they take a smaller % ofthe deal to sell on.

The other posters gave very technical definitions, which are true, but can be confusing if you aren't familiar with the term.\n\nLet's say you're looking at IBM stock.  Now, IBM stock trades on more than just the NYSE (there is the AMEX, and the regional exchanges like the Pacific Stock Exchange, Boston Stock Exch, etc.).  So, let's say you're looking at IBM and you notice that IBM is trading at $50.00 on the NYSE, but it's trading at $50.25 on the AMEX.  In arbitrage, you buy IBM stock on the NYSE at $50 and simultaneously sell in ton the AMEX for $50.25, thus locking in a guaranteed $0.25 profit per share.  This is very basic.  You can have situation like in the currency markets where the exchange rates between the US Dollar, Pound and Yen are such that you exchange dollars for pounds, then pounds for yen and then yen back to dollars to take advantage of exchange rate disparities and lock in a profit.\n\nIn the simplest terms, it's buying a security at one place and simultaneously selling it at another place where the price is higher.\n\nIn other words, imagine buying an item on Yahoo auctions for $5.00 and then selling it on eBay for $10.00 (where the going price on Yahoo is $5.00 and the going price on eBay is $10.00).\n\nHope this helps.
