Listen to a Podcast About The Stock Market

Demystify Wall Street — how stock exchanges work, valuation methods, market psychology, bubbles and crashes, and the forces that move prices in global equity markets.

The New York Stock Exchange, founded in 1792 when 24 stockbrokers signed the Buttonwood Agreement under a tree on Wall Street, is the world's largest stock exchange with listed companies totaling over $25 trillion in market capitalization. The S&P 500 has delivered an average annual return of approximately 10.3% since its inception in 1957 (about 7% after inflation), though individual years vary wildly — from a 47% gain in 1954 to a 38% loss in 2008. The GameStop short squeeze of January 2021, driven by retail investors on the Reddit forum r/WallStreetBets, sent the stock from $17 to $483 in three weeks, exposed the fragility of short-selling, and prompted Congressional hearings on market structure and retail trading access.
