A、indefinite time
B、near future
C、prospective time
D、commodities transacted at a future date
【正确答案】：D
【名师解析】:题目中的关键词 "futures" 在金融市场中指的是期货，这是一种合约，买卖双方约定在未来某个日期以特定价格买卖某种商品或金融工具。在题目的上下文中，"political futures market" 指的是一种特殊的期货市场，人们可以对政治事件的结果进行投注，例如总统选举。因此，正确答案是选项D "commodities transacted at a future date"，这表明了期货市场的基本特征，即交易的是未来某个时间点的商品或金融工具。选项A、B和C都与题目中的 "futures" 概念不符。
