The History of Stocks and Stock Exchanges

A little over 400 years ago, a group of Dutch investors had a revolutionary idea.

They were embarking on an incredibly risky endeavor, and to spread the risk, they were going to share ownership of the new venture.

Even better, each part of the ownership in this venture could be bought and sold to other investors.

Their innovation is one of the most powerful economic forces in the world today.

Learn more about stocks and stock exchanges, how they were formed, and how they work on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
