Who benefits from the finacial markets?

Financial markets are beneficial for each and evry participant. Let me explain it how: As an investor: you are having the leverage or opportunity to buy or sell shares or securities of several companies or corporates. In other words, the cash or the money you have invested in the market is 'liquid'. You could buy any number of shares at any point of time as well as you dispose off or sell the shares whenever you wish to. So, tats what 'liquidity' means. As an issuer: you are having the leverage or opportunity to raise capital or cash from the stock market inorder to fund the business over a longer period of time. In other words, the supply of cash from the stock markets are unending until and unless the stock market exists. As an intermediary or stock broker: you have the advantage of levying or imposing brokerages on every buy or sell order executed on the stock exchange. On a daily basis there are hundreds and thousands of transactions being made and the brokerages amounts for a handful amount of money for the stock brokers. The above said are few of the participants in the financial markets. There are lots more like the foreign institutional investors, foreign direct investors etc. The idea here is to make clear how engaging in buying and selling of stocks is beneficial for each and every participant
