What is stock market?
Stock market is the place where the fractions of companies ownership is transferred from buyer to seller.
In India share market is still considered as a luxury to many of the individuals. Around 55 percentage of Americans have access to stock market according to latest data available in statista.com. Compare that with india, mere 2% of total population. This 2% has been achieved because pandemic situation which caused lockdown made millienial enthusiasts to open a trading account.
The overall penetration is low, and as an individual investor, that's a good news for me, as more and more people get in, there will be more demand to existing shares and as demand increases and supply remains constant, stock value increases. This is assumed by not taking fundamentals of the company into account, if that is also included then there will be multiple drivers for the stock price to go up and make you wealth.
