Most people think of the capital markets as a place to loose or make money.
Some would say just loose.
Actually while providing excellent opportunities to do both the capital markets do a bit more that that.
How a company is doing in the market can tell you how good their products are.
How a group of stocks are preforming can tell you how an industry is doing.

Here I will not discuss investment strategies.
Rather these links are to the "Big Board" and "the over the counter" capital trading areas.
I have also included several exchanges that are not in the United States.
You will also find a listing of Commodity Exchanges.
Commodities are only for the truly adventurous.
Some would say insane.
If you like auctions you will love these.
The stock market is really a kind of auction.
Some would say a "crap shoot".
