Final answer:

Both call options and put options can be bought or sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

True



Both call options and put options can be bought or sold. Call options give the buyer the right to buy a stock at a specific price within a specified period of time. The buyer of a call option expects the stock price to increase, allowing them to buy the stock at a lower price and make a profit.



Put options give the buyer the right to sell a stock at a specific price within a specified period of time. The buyer of a put option expects the stock price to decrease, allowing them to sell the stock at a higher price and make a profit.
