Read about world stock exchanges.
The world has become a global village, today. With
the age of innovation, in each and every field of technology, people are
no longer restricted by the distance factor. In fact, we live in a world
where quick and instant means of communication as well as connectivity
are the order of the day. One of the greatest examples of this is the
ever increasing international trade between countries. Every country is
looking forward to shed off its trade barriers and build a common forum
for the growth and development of people, at large. Share markets are
the biggest paradigms of the global market.
In the present times, the rise and fall of indices across the
international stock exchanges do not just indicate the price value of a
specific company or an organization, but also indicate the scenario
prevailing in the global economy, as a whole. With more and more
companies trying to list themselves in the international stock markets,
such as NASDAQ, NYSE, FTSE, DJIA and Hang Seng, it becomes vital to have
