Because when people buy stock, that means they are paying a company a sum to have the right to own a part of that company. When this happens the value of the company goes up. However if people do not like a company they will sell the stock they own and get money back for it. When this happens the company now holds less money and its stock goes down. This happens with thousands of listings everyday on the stock exchanges.
