What is stock exchange market define advantage and dis advantage?

It is a place where you can purchase and sell shares (part ownership) of companies that are listed on it. There are 3 major exchanges in the U.S. along with smaller ones such as the OTC (over the counter) exchange, where "penny stocks" are traded. The main advantage of buying stock would be your chance of increased returns on your investment. Stocks typically outperform other avenues of investing such as CDs and bonds. The main disadvantage would be the unpredictability of said returns. The performance of the company you own shares with does not necessarily dictate the price of the stock. Markets are driven by many factors some of which are completely subjective, such as fear and greed. You will always exchange risk for higher returns in the field of investing.


What are the disadvantages of national stock exchange of India?

There are three basic ways to trade stocks. The first is investor-to-investor. I have a thousand shares of Coca-Cola and you want to buy 200 of those shares. Assuming I have certificates broken into 100-share lots, I will first figure out what the shares are worth (or what I would like to sell them for--there is NO law stating I can't take a stock that sells for $50 per share and sell it for $25), then give you a price. If you like it, you give me a check, I give you the certificate and we're good. The primary advantage is there's no brokerage fees. The primary disadvantage is I might not (and probably don't) have the shares you want. The second is to buy stock directly from the company who issued it. Here the major problem is, you already need to be a shareholder to do this and not all companies do it. The advantage of a stock exchange is it's got shares in many companies and it's easy to get the stock you want from them. The disadvantage is you have to be a brokerage to buy from a stock exchange; I can't just walk into the New York Stock Exchange and ask for a hundred shares of Pepsi. (Well, I COULD, but they'd tell me to go to my broker because it's not legal for an individual to buy directly from the exchange.)

Why do companies list on the JSE?

Companies have three choices when they want to raise money to grow their business: to borrow from a bank, issue bonds or issue shares. The key advantage of issuing shares is that the company doesn't need to pay back the capital amount or make interest payments. Funds received from the selling of shares are used by the business to expand and finance projects etc.
