talk about famous forex trader

numerous customers turn to me about what reverse repurchase agreement means.
What reverse repurchase agreement is, is the purchase of securities with the agreement to sell them at a higher price at a specific future date.
For the party selling the security (and agreeing to repurchase it in the future) it is a repo; for the party on the other end of the transaction (buying the security and agreeing to sell in the future) it is a reverse repurchase agreement.
Repos are classified as a money-market instrument. They are usually used to raise short-term capital.
