The stock market refers to the collection of markets and exchanges where stocks (shares of ownership in businesses) are bought and sold. It serves as a platform for investors to trade securities, typically regulated by government agencies to ensure fair practices and transparency. The stock market facilitates the raising of capital for companies by allowing them to sell shares to the public, and it provides a mechanism for investors to gain ownership in those companies and potentially earn returns through capital appreciation and dividends. Key components of the stock market include stock exchanges, where transactions are processed; stockbrokers, who facilitate trades on behalf of clients; and various indices that track the performance of selected stocks.
