All about the stock market
Do you want to know everything about the stock market? Carefree. A stock market is a centralized place where shares of publicly traded companies are bought and sold. It differs from other markets in that tradable assets are limited to stocks, bonds, and exchange-traded products. In this market, investors are looking for instruments in which to invest and companies or issuers need to finance their projects. Both groups trade securities, such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds, through intermediaries (agents, brokers and exchanges).
