marketable securities traded in the stock exchange. One of the many things people

always want to know about the stock market is, How do I make money by

investing in the stock Market ? There are many different approaches; two basic

methods are classified as either fundamental analysis or technical analysis.

found in SEC Filings, business trends, general economic conditions, etc. Technical

analysis studies price actions in markets through the use of charts and quantitative

techniques to attempt to forecast price trends regardless of the companys financial

prospects.

holds a weighted or unweighted portfolio consisting of the entire stock market or

some segment of the stock market (such as the NIFTY or SENSEX). The principalaim of this strategy is to maximize diversification, minimize taxes from too

frequent trading, and ride the general trend of the stock.

Title : How Stocks Trade & How Price Movement take Place

Author : Abhishek Parka

Journal : Fundamental of stock market

Keywords : Articles, BSE, EP knowledge center, Indian stock market, NSE

Abstract :

At the most fundamental level, supply and demand in the market determines stock prices.

Price times the number of shares outstanding (market capitalization) is the value of a company,

comparing just the share price of two companies is meaningless. Theoretically, earnings are what

affect investors valuation of a company, but there are other indicators that investors use to

predict stock price. Remember, it is investors sentiments, attitudes and expectations that

ultimately affect stock prices. There are many theories that try to explain the way stock prices

move the way they do. Unfortunately, there is no one theory that can explain everything.

Title : Effect of Mergers on the Share Price Movement of the Acquiring

Firms:

A UK study

Author : J.C Dodds*, J.P. Quek*

Journal : journal of business finance & accountingAbstract :

The profitability of mergers in Britain has not received the same attention as in the USA.

This study examines mergers for the UK industrial sector as a whole for a period (1974-76)

when merger activity was relatively slack. A standard methodology is used, but the size effects

and the activeness of acquirers as well as the financing of the acquisition are examined. The

conclusions contradict to some extent those found by other researchers in that the evidence was

incenses-tent with the efficient markets hypothesis. The effect of taking firm size into account

was found to reduce the standard deviations of the sample and it would appear that the cash

mergers were viewed as less desirable by the market compared to equity exchange. For the

separation of merger active Hon active firms it was found that there was less dispersion of the

residuals for non-merger active firms.
