A、can be sold short.
B、is a financial asset.
C、is relatively liquid.
【Answer to question 1】B

B is correct.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security that can be arbitraged may be either a financial or a non-financial security.
A is incorrect.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security must be able to be short sold.
C is incorrect.For riskless arbitrage to exist,the underlying security must be relatively liquid so it is easy to buy and sell at a low cost.

A、An exchange-traded fund
B、A contract to sell Alphabet Inc.’s shares at a fixed price
C、A contract to buy Australian dollars at a predetermined exchange rate
【Answer to question 2】A
【analysis】
A is correct.Although an exchange-traded fund derives its value from the underlying assets it holds,it does not transform the performance of those assets and so is not a derivative.
B is incorrect.A contract to sell Alphabet Inc.’s shares transforms the performance of the underlying shares of Alphabet Inc and is an example of an option derivative.
C is incorrect.A contract to buy Australian dollars transforms the performance of the underlying currency and is an example of a currency derivative.
