Stock market indices, figures or prices. A stock market or equity market is a public entity (a loose network of economic transactions, not a physical facility or discrete entity) for the trading of company stock (shares) and derivatives at an agreed price; these are securities listed on a stock exchange as well as those only traded privately. The movements of the prices in a market or section of a market are captured in price indices called stock market indices, of which there are many, , the S&P, the FTSE and the Euronext indices. Such indices are usually market capitalization weighted, with the weights reflecting the contribution of the stock to the index. The constituents of the index are reviewed frequently to include/exclude stocks in order to reflect the changing business environment. The graph lines indicate random fluctuations in the value of stocks. Computer artwork.
