This means that there are sufficient buy and sell quotes in the market, with small bid-ask spreads, allowing investors to expect to complete transactions at average prices close to the current market price over a longer period.
• Black (1971) Definition: Liquidity is the ability to convert stock assets into cash, involving the execution costs of the process of monetization or conversion. Markets with good liquidity can monetize or convert quickly and at lower costs.
