Their value is derived from the price changes of the underlying assets. For example, stock option is a derivative product based on stock, and its value depends on the price fluctuation, maturity time, volatility and other factors of the underlying stock. If the stock market does not rise and the stock price lacks fluctuation, then the value of stock options will be difficult to be reflected. Moreover, derivative financial products themselves have high risks, and their price changes are often more violent than the basic assets. When the stock market does not rise, the high-risk characteristics of derivative financial products will be amplified, and investors may suffer huge losses.
