Market
\nmarket is a place\u00a0 in which\u00a0 lot of shares are bought and sold on the stock exchange. For shares whose face value is Rs 10, the marketable or trading lot\u00a0 may be 50 or 100. For Rs 100 shares the market lot is usually 5 or 10. Companies may, however, decide on other lots, such as 1 share for RS 500, although it is now rare. Any number of shares less than the marketable lot makes an odd lot, difficult to buy and disadvantageous to sell.<\/p>\n
Market Tone
\nmarket tone indicates the health of the stock market. It is good when the bid an offer prices have a narrow gap and the volume of business is large. It is bad when there is little trading and the gap between bid and offer prices is large. It is unhealthy when financial institutions alone are propping it up.<\/p>\n
