what is stock market #StockMarketSuccess

The stock market is a marketplace where buyers and sellers trade shares of publicly listed companies. It allows businesses to raise capital by selling ownership stakes (stocks) and provides investors with opportunities to buy and sell those shares for potential profits.

Stock markets operate through exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq in the U.S. or BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange) and NSE (National Stock Exchange) in India. Prices of stocks fluctuate based on supply and demand, company performance, economic conditions, and investor sentiment.

Investors participate in the stock market for various reasons, such as:

Long-term growth (investing in companies with growth potential)

Dividend income (earning from company profits)

Short-term trading (buying and selling stocks for quick profits)
