STOCK BROKING


Have you ever thought of the experience that you would have if you sit in front of a computer with four or five telephones beside you constantly ringing and you replying to the callers who are supposed to be your clients ?
 
Isn't it a great experience if you find people calling you up every second and asking you to buy shares of Infosys while a few others may be interested in purchasing shares of Hindustan Lever Limited ? That's one of the basic job of a stock broker - purchasing and selling shares of companies .. 

Indian industry has now really taken off and this fact has been acknowledged globally . Liberalization has eased restrictions and foreign companies are freely gaining access to India . Indian bourses (stock exchanges) are now dealing  with big numbers and big buyers (gone are the days when few companies were listed in the exchanges ) . The stock markets are undergoing transformation . 

As a Stock Broker you would be playing host to foreign investor bankers , who are looking for opportunities in the Indian stock market or visiting fund managers abroad seeking investment here apart from dealing in shares for your clients . Gone are the days of being stuck in tiny booth - like offices with a telephone , today you need to have computers with the prices of shares at various stock exchanges (NSE , BSE ,CSE etc) continuously flashing on the screens .
