The stock market refers to public markets that exist for issuing, buying, and selling stocks that trade on a stock exchange or over-the-counter. Stocks, also known as equities, represent fractional ownership in a company, and the stock market is a place where investors can buy and sell ownership of such investible assets. If you own a company’s stock, you own a piece of that company. Learn everything you need to know about these building blocks of investing at Sai FinWin.
