How are share prices determined ?  Purely on the basis of market forces. Demand and supply determine price. If demand will go up – prices will increase, if demand is less than supply – prices will fall. It is like perfect market.  Demand and supply depends on information. Market discounts every information. Market has all the information uptodate. If there is a good news about a company, the market will discount it – as more people will buy that share and less people will sell it – so the prices will go up.
How do people decide about shares – whether to buy or not?  People look at future earnings potential of a company before buying a share. If they believe that the company will be able to earn and grow manifold – they will buy at premium (more price than the print price). If they belive that the company will be a sick company (in huge losses) – they will sell it at a discount (below the print price). If FM (finance minister) gives a good budget – people expect a good future of company and the prices will shoot up.
How do we ensure that our money is safe in a company ?  There are auditors, independent directors, and independent audit comitees in every company to ensure that there are no frauds and our money remains safe there. Still there are possibilities for fraud. Investors have to be very careful. They should not invest just at the advice of someone. They must themselves study the fundamentals of a company before investing and invest in A class shares only.
What are A class shares?  In BSE, they have classified shares on some basis – like market capitalisation, daily business, regularity of information submission etc.  There are different types of companies like : A, B, T, Z, etc. So you must invest in A class shares only.
