 Stock market - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stock that a trader does not actually own may be traded using short selling; margin buying may be used to purchase stock with borrowed funds; or, derivatives may be used to control large blocks of stocks for a much smaller amount of money than would be required by outright purchase or sale.
The movements of the prices in a market or section of a market are captured in price indices called stock market indices, of which there are many, e.g., the SandP, the FTSE and the Euronext indices.
For example, 'the stock market' in the United States includes the trading of stocks listed on the NYSE, NASDAQ, and Amex, and also on the OTCBB and Pink Sheets.
