The document discusses factors that affect share prices, including supply and demand, interest rates, current events, and exchange rates. Supply and demand directly impact share prices, with prices rising when demand exceeds supply and falling when supply outweighs demand. Interest rates and monetary policy decisions also influence prices, with higher rates typically lowering prices. Current domestic and global events can positively or negatively impact investor sentiment and market prices. Exchange rates also play a role, as a stronger rupee against the dollar is often correlated with economic growth and higher stock values.
