Warrants are usually of one or two types, investment, or trading. The simplest type of warrant grants the right to buy, or sell, an individual stock, or index, but warrants on commodities, such as crude oil, and currencies, allowing investors to take a position on exchange rates, for example, are other possibilities. Sometimes more than one type of warrant can be used to achieve the same investment objective.
