What Is a Stock Exchange?
A stock exchange is a regulated marketplace where stock market transactions take place. It sets the rules and provides the facilities for the trading of stocks. Examples include the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. In Pakistan, the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) is the main stock exchange.
How Does the Stock Market Work?
- Listing and Trading: Companies list their shares on a stock exchange through an initial public offering (IPO). Once listed, investors can buy and sell these shares.
- Price Determination: Share prices are determined by supply and demand. When more people want to buy a share, its price goes up. When more people want to sell, the price goes down.
- Market Participants: Investors, traders, and brokers play key roles in the stock market. Brokers help execute trades on behalf of investors.
- Market Trends: The overall market movement is influenced by economic data, company performance, and global events.
