Watching the numbers roll by on the bottom of your screen during a news cast might seem like nonsense to you. Those numbers are very important to many people because they make their fortune with stocks.

To understand the stock market you first need to understand what stocks are. Stocks are the capital raised by a company when they sell shares. Shares are offered through the stock market and the money taken in from those becomes the company’s stocks.There are several major stock exchanges in the world where shares are traded.

One of these stock markets is the NASDAQ. NASDAQ stands for National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations. The NASDAQ is a United States based stock market. It’s the world’s first electronic based stock market. *** cutting

Many other countries also have a great impact on stocks. In Europe almost each country has their own stock market this includes Portugal, Germany and Lisbon.

The people who handle the buying and trading are called stock brokers. Their job is to sell and trade the shares that their clients request. It’s a demanding and rewarding job being involved directly in stocks this way. Stock brokers can make a lucrative income and the ones that study the markets and understand all the ups and downs have a definite advantage.

There are other avenues available for people interested in stocks and that’s the online stock trading companies. Many of these companies allow anyone to sign up and buy and trade their own shares. This can be a great way for someone to be introduced to the world of stocks and with some research and practice they can make themselves a profit.

It’s very easy to take the everyday electric motor for granted. Some may not even think much of it; they just know what it does. Some common places where you will find an electric motor include table saws, heel chairs, and electric vehicles, which are just starting to take off. Electric sports cars can out accelerate a Ferrari. Here’s how a DC electric motor works: When the coil is powered, a magnetic field is created around the armature (or stator). The left side of the armature is pushed away from the magnet on the same side, and drawn towards the right, which causes rotation. When the armature is horizontal, the commutator, the current changes direction through the coil, and this reverses the magnetic field. This process repeats. The whole process is based on the rotating magnetic field principle, which was first though up by Nikola Tesla. An easier way to look at it would be two magnets opposite each other with opposite charges. Between these two magnets is a plate that rotates side-by-side from a magnetic field. It’s simple when you think about it, but the process is also very complicating, and has to be very precise for it to work. Now this is a very basic view on electric motors, but it’s better than not knowing what it is that is doing that work for you all the time.
