What is the Stock Market?
The stock market is a place where people buy and sell ownership in companies. That ownership is called a stock or share.
When you buy a stock, you’re buying a small piece of a company.
If the company grows and makes money, your stock can increase in value.
If the company struggles, your stock can lose value.
Stock prices move based on supply and demand:
- More buyers than sellers → price goes up
- More sellers than buyers → price goes down
People buy and sell stocks based on company performance, news, the economy, and emotions like fear and greed.
Some people invest by holding stocks long-term.
Others trade by buying and selling over shorter periods.
The key to success is understanding risk, staying disciplined, and not trading emotionally.
