Before going to Equity markets, let us first define the Markets. Market is any place where a buyer and seller meets. Hence Equity Market, as the name suggests, is a place where buying and selling of Equity takes place. This takes us to the next question.. what is Equity?
In a nutshell, equity is the value of an item that exceeds the debt on that item. For example if the value of your house is $150,000 and you have a mortgage of $85,000, you have $65,000 in equity in your house ($150,000 - $85,000 = $65,000).
Simply said equity = a positive and a liability = a negative value.
