The stock market is a collection of markets and exchanges where activities related to buying, selling, and issuing shares of publicly held companies take place. It facilitates the exchange of securities, such as stocks and bonds, either through formal exchanges or over-the-counter (OTC) marketplaces. The stock market serves as a platform for companies to raise capital by selling shares to investors, who in return gain partial ownership of the company. Investors can trade these shares, possibly earning a profit through price increases or dividends. The stock market is influenced by a variety of economic factors, investor sentiment, and broader market trends. Major stock indices, such as the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones Industrial Average, provide a snapshot of market performance and investor confidence. The stock market plays a crucial role in the global economy, impacting wealth creation and investment strategies.
