嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


A. Hedger:对冲者是指参与市场为了降低风险,通常是对冲其它风险,例如价格波动对其现有的业务或资产的影响。

B. Speculator:投机者是指参与市场,以赚取价格波动的差价,而不是为了对冲特定的风险。

C. Arbitrageur:套利者是指利用市场不一致定价,从中获取无风险利润的交易者。

在这个问题中,Apex Fund 试图通过利用实物商品和期货价格之间的错位定价赚取交易利润。这种策略更接近套利(arbitrage)而不是投机(speculation)。套利者试图通过从价格不一致中获取无风险利润,而不是仅仅为了赚取价格波动的差价。

所以,根据问题描述,最合适的选择是:

C. An arbitrageur.(一个套利者)
