    The stock market is an aggregation of buyers and sellers of stocks, which represent ownership claims on businesses. A stock market allows investors to trade stock electronically through a demat account, which converts physical shares into an electronic format, and a trading account. There are two main types of shares - equity shares, which represent ownership and risk, and commodity market shares, which represent goods like metals. The largest stock exchanges are the New York Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange, while benefits of investing include potential higher returns and liquidity, though risks include volatility and ownership risks.
