French term or phrase: cours spot (au comptant) du support
§ decribing th conditions linked to an options trade

Pour un call, la valeur intrinsèque est égale à la différence entre le cours spot (au comptant) du support et le prix d’exercice. Puisque le prix d'exercice correspond au cours actuel de l'action, les warrants n'ont pas de valeur intrinsèque au moment de leur émission.

spot rate of the securities concerned
Explanation:
"cours au comptant" is the official French terms but they also use "spot", hence the inclusion of both to help everyone understand!

I take the "support" to mean the item concerned by the call (presumably securities), but maybe someone could help and confirm (or otherwise)
