The stock market is not directly related to the unemployment rate of a country. But when the employment rate in the country is high and the economy booming, usually the Stock Market goes up consistently. This is because people have a lot of money and they invest in stocks and stock market instruments.

During recessions and economic hardships there is a lot of unemployment and lack of liquidity. During such times the stock market goes down because people withdraw their investments to meet their cash requirements.
