why do stocks and have someone else control your savings realstate is the way to go,
World markets have been reacting wildly to America's economic woes and the New York Stock Exchange is no exception. The trading floor has been ...
For instance: if the stock of Company A opened at say $10 and at the end of the day it price was $11. How did the exchange arrive at this exact price?
Suppose i own some stock of the said company, i offer to sell it for $10.50. Another person, willing to put money in that stock, will buy the stock at $10.50. So, the stock is now trading at $10.50. This scenario continues and the stock reaches $11 by the close of the day.
Its purely based on supply and demand. More demand, the prices will zoom up!
I know share price movements is the fluctuations or change in share price of a company in a given time period right?
I've been searching around for stock exchange (share market) and know that share price and stock exchange is somehow related.
If i am correct, is share price movements of a company will be shown in a stock exchange report?
I am confuse about what is stock exchange and what does it actually means..
Muffin,
If a company is publicly owned (i.e., you can buy and sell the shares with relative ease), the shares of ownership usually will be sold on a stock exchange, like the NYSE, NASDAQ, over the counter bulletin board, etc. There are stock exchanges all over the world, like the FTSE, DAX, etc. Google any of these abbreviations and you'll get a number of hits.
The stock exchange is merely a place where the shares or stock of a company are bought and sold - hence the word "exchange."
The stock exchange regularly reports the activity of buying and selling of all the stocks on their exchange (all the companies that have their stock bought or sold on the exchange - also known as listed on the exchange).
So the share price isn't related to exchange - the share price is what is agreed to between a buyer and a seller. The interesting thing is the buyer and seller don't meet to consumate the transaction - they do it through the exchange. A buyer may buy at the market price (what is being asked by the seller) or may issue a limit order (I won't pay more than X amount). Likewise the seller has the same options as a buyer - issue a market or a limit order.

Good luck.
I need help, bit in detail though shorter the better.
I would like to know how these websites related to stock exchange work?
Do they connect to stock exchange server directly or there is some other way?
The stock exchange connects to stock exchange and that is not over the internet.. Internet is public and unsafe for the stock exchange.
I'm not sure but that's a viable idea.
The minimum recapitalization have just been increased significantly.What role can the stock exchange play in consolidating this event in the banking industry?
The stock exchanges play a role, but they really do not have any other influence except that of facilitating the buying and selling of securities. I really don't understand what you mean when you say "consolidate activities." But if you are referring to the consolidation of the banking sector, it has already begun. For example, JP Morgan & Chase, JP MorganChase and Bank One. You get the picture? The role of the exchange in this situation was to facilitate the merging of shares between these individual banks into one share to be traded on the Stock Exchange.
