	Repurchase agreement - One Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		It is a transaction in which one party sells securities to another while agreeing to repurchase those securities at a future date.
		Under a repurchase agreement ("RP" or "repo"), the Fed buys government securities from a dealer who agrees to buy them back, typically within one to seven days; a reverse repo is the opposite.
		Repurchase agreements initially add reserves to the banking system and then withdraw them; reverse repos initially drain reserves and later add them back.

	Dunn v. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, 519 U.S. 465 (1997).
		An option, as the term is understood in the trade, is a transaction in which the buyer purchases from the seller for consideration the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an agreed amount of a commodity at a set rate at any time prior to the option's expiration.
		As we have already noted, the CFTC agrees that futures contracts are a subset of "transactions in foreign currency." The Commission further submits that the proviso uses the word "involve" to make the exemption inapplicable to those futures contracts that are conducted on a board of trade.
		The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
