From the previous study that showed controversial perspective among the researches and economists, some of them identified the positive relationship between the stock market development and economic growth. In general, stock markets have played an important role in economic life by measuring the stock market liquidity. According to S.Van Nieuwerburgh (2006), he had found that a better-developed stock market witness higher subsequent growth in Belgium by finding the cross-country econometric evidence. There are evidence that support the important of long-term relationship between stock market development and economic growth during the period of rapid development.

The results of the study suggest a positive relationship between stock market development and economic growth for some countries which the liquidity and highly active of their stock market. Filer et al. (1991) argue stock market growth relation and showed positive casual correlation between stock market development and economic activity. Spears (1991) stated that financial intermediation induced the economic growth in the early stages of development. The financial stock market facilitates higher investments and the allocation of capital. Investors may avoid investing directly to the companies because through this way, they cannot withdraw the money whenever they want to withdraw. However, investors can easily buy and sell the stocks whenever they want to do so very quickly with more independence.

Based on Lenuja Carp (2012), a well-functioning stock market has an important contribution to sustainable economic development, which it can convert the national economy to be more attractive to attract more investors in order to boost the economic growth. The stock market development promotes the investors to access to the financial resources, which is encouraging more savings from the savers, and efficiently assign the resources to the investment in domestic business through financial institution, financial market and financial instruments, which may in turn boosting the national and foreign investments, and lead to economic growth. Levine, Zervos (1996) and Demigurc – Kunt and Levine (1996) has indicates that there is an existence of causal relation between the stock market development and the economic growth. Liquidity which act as a stock market indicator, play a key role in accelerating economic growth. Levine (1997) indicates the impact of the stock markets on economic growth by increasing the capital investments liquidity which assuming that higher degree of liquidity will allow the savers to sell their shares easily to generate the economic
The United States signaled a new era after the end of World War I. It was an era of hopefulness when many people invested their money that was under the mattresses at home or in the bank into the stock market. People migrated to the prosperous cities with the hopes of finding much better life. In the 1920s, the stock market reputation did not appear to be a risky investment, until 1929.First noticeable in 1925, the stock market prices began to rise as more people invested their money. During 1925 and 1926, the stock prices vacillated but in 1927, it had an upward trend. The stock market boom had started by 1928. The stock market was no longer a long-term investment because the boom changed the investor’s way of thinking (“The Stock Market Crash of 1929”). The Stock Market Crash of 1929 was a mass hysteria because of people investing without any prior knowledge and the after effects that eventually led to the Great Depression.

A proven method to achieve wealth while keeping up with inflation, comprised of publically held companies who offer goods and services that are used by the general public daily.

Economic growth focuses on encouraging firms to invest or encouraging people to save, which in turn creates funds for firms to invest. It runs hand-in-hand with the goal of high employment because in order for firms to be comfortable investing in assets such as plants and equipment, unemployment must be low. Hereby, the people and resources will be available to spur economic growth.
In turn everything in the present and the future is judged through the stocks as they hold a high importance in industrialized economies showing the healthiness of said countries economy. As investing discourages consumer spending over all decreases, it lead...

If the development of Financial Market in America is like a sturdy adult, I would say the development of Financial Market in China is just like a child. The history of the U.S. financial market was established and has been growing over two centuries. For China, only twenty year has now passed since the financial market was built and growth. The Chinese financial market seems to be immature compared to the U.S. For example, China’s financial market does not have a thorough monitored stock market. The child is just starting to imitate the behavior and follow the step of the adult. However, the child is too young that mistakes always being made. On the other hand, since the child is in his early growth stage, a high level of growth is undertaking and a large progress might be attained. In today's China’s financial market, it is necessary for China to gather finance professionals in development of financial market. As a recent graduate student, working in the finance field less than a year, it is extremely hard for me in making a tiny positive effect on the growth of Chinese financial. However, to be engaged myself to the development of Chinese financial market is my long-term career goal.

There are at least four different research perspectives about the relationship between development and economic growth. Firstly, economic growth is the basis for social development. Secondly, economic growth and social development are not necessarily linked. Thirdly, both economic growth and social development are not basic causes by each other, but they depend on interaction. Fourthly, social development is the prerequisite for economic growth (Mazumdar. 1...

The stock market is an essential part of a free-market economy, such as America’s. This is because it provides companies the capital they need in exchange for giving away small parts of ownership in their company to investors. The stock market works by letting different companies sell stocks to gain capital, meaning they sell shares of their company through an exchange system in order to make more money. Stocks represent a small amount of ownership in a company. The more stocks a person owns, the more ownership they have of that company. Stocks also represent shares in a company, which are equal parts in which the company’s capital is divided, entitling a shareholder to a portion of the company’s profits. Lastly, all of the buying and selling of stocks happens at an exchange. An exchange is a system or market in which stocks can be bought and sold within or between countries. All of these aspects together create the stock market.
What is the stock market? Businesses share part of the company by selling stock, or shares of ownership. When investors own shares of a company, that company is considered public because the general public has an ownership stake in that company. At the high ranks of the companies are the board of directors, whose job it is to make sure the business’s managers are working in the best interests of the multiple owners and shareholders. Companies sell shares so they can expand their businesses and make them better, such as by building manufacturing plants, buying other companies, and developing new and improved products to keep their business profitable. America’s railroads, steel manufacturers, car companies, and telephone companies all started with the help of money from opening up their business to the Stock Market. The Stock Market started in the 1920’s. People who were smart enough to buy them back then could build up a fortune since the market was growing so rapidly. One wh...
Theoretical model of modern economic growth shows that long-term economic growth and raise the level of per capita income depends on technological progress. This is because of without technological progress and with the increase of capital per capita, marginal returns of capital would diminish and output per capita growth would eventually stagnate (Solow, 1956; Swan, 1956). Studies have shown that “experience, skills and knowledge in the long-term economic growth is playing an increasingly important role” (World Bank, 1999). Despite how technological progress work on economic growth, and how there are different views on the role of in the end, but I am afraid no one would deny that technical progress in the important role of economic development. In this sense, for a country to achieve long-term economic growth, we must continue to promote technological progress. However, economic growth theory is analyzed in general, and usually under the assumption that in the closed economy, and technological progress in a country not normally have taken place in various departments at the same time, and now the economy are often increasingly open economy. In this way, the technological progress in different economic impact on a country may be quite different. In addition, we assume that technological progress is Hicks neutral, is to an industry in itself, but technological progress also reflects the establishment of new industries and development. The new industries and technology-intensive industries generally older than the high, the use of less labor. Even the old industries, the general trend of technological progress is labor-saving.
Economic growth is one of the most important fields in economics. In current generation economic is developing well. Economic growth is really important to country and for the world as well. Economic are one of the identity for country because it shows a country development and attraction for other countries (F, Peter. 2014). For example well economic develop such as Singapore, Dubai, New York, and Japan. These countries are well develop and maintaining their economic growths.
