When can you think that anti-matter futures will be available?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24986points) February 2nd, 2016

I think one day that anti-matter will be sold on the commodities market. What would be the price?

Are you kidding? The most destructive substance imaginable bandied about like pork belliies?

You can’t make a contract worth trading until you have a way to deliver it.

Right now, there’s not a lot of demand for it, so the price would be pretty cheap.

@stanleybmanly I’m just curious.

It would be orders of magnitude beyond marketing fissionable plutonium. Imagine a portfolio of H bomb futures.

@stanleybmanly Canada sells nuclear materials. We sold Candu reactors to China 15 years ago. Their is a market for everything. How would a rocket inventor get the material for building a super fast space shuttle?

@RedDeerGuy1 There is indeed a market for everything. But if antimatter ever becomes plentiful enough to be traded on the open market, we’re doomed to certain annihilation along with the planet we currently infest.
