    4.4 CAUSES FOR THE FLUCTUATION OF PRICES OF SHARES ANDSECURITIES

    Prices of shares and securities fluctuate time to time like other products prices.

    Demand and supply laws are activate in this market. Prices fluctuate here rapidly

    than other products prices. Share prices are influenced by multiple factors.

    Causes for the fluctuation of prices of shares and securities are stated below:

    Business condition: There is a close relation between price fluctuationsof shares-securities with business condition. Good condition of business

    increases the price of shares and terrible condition leads to decrease theprice. Profit falling influences the share price. Business conditions are

    broadly two types - boom and depression. In boom market share prices

    increase and in depression share prices decrease.

    Rate of dividend: Share prices are related with the change in rate ofdividend. Investors invest theft money to cam profit. So, the change in

    rate of dividend influences the price of shares.

  • 8/3/2019 04 Body

    22/31

    2 2 | P a g e

    Bank rate: Bank rate has a special influence on price changes of shares.Increased bank rate encourages investors to save money in hank. As a

    result, investors sell their shares to liquidate money for saving purpose

    which increase the supply of shares in the market and prices diminish On

    the other band, decreased bank rate encourages investors to invest

    money on shares high expand market-demand of shares. Growingdemand increases the price of shares.

    Inflation and deflation: Inflation lessens the power of purchase ofmoney. A lot of amount of money exists in people hands during inflation.

    In tips Lime people tries to gel sonic opportunities by investing excess

    money in share market. So, demand of shares increases which increases

    the prices of shares. In time of deflation, share prices decrease by the

    influence of fewer demands.

    Monetary and credit policy of the central bank: Increase and decreaseof prices of shares and securities are mostly influenced by the monetaryand credit policy of the central bank. If central bank follows weak

    economic and credit policy, lack of money is seen in the market. Investors

    who already have taken credits from bank are eager to repay loans even

    by selling their shares. In this situation supply of share are increased and

    for excess supply than demand price decreases and market becomes

    bear market.

    Government fiscal and taxing policy: The fiscal and taxing policy of thegovernment influences share prices. If the government increases duty and

    tax, prices of goods increase and sale reduce comparatively. A reductionin sale indicates a decrease in revenue. Decrease in revenue means

    decrease in rate of dividend. If the rate of dividend decreases, share price

    of the company will also decrease. On other hand, if company gets tax

    holiday facility, tax rebate and other benefits from the government the

    companys profitability increases. Increased profit means an increase in

    rate of dividend and increase in share price.

    Economic depression: Economic depression affects the share marketand entire economy of the country unfavorably. During economic

    depression purchasing power of people decreases at a significant rate. At

    that period share prices decrease in the capital.

    Change In the policy of investment organizations: Investmentorganizations like banks, insurances, board of investment etc. if decides

    to sell the shares of any particular business, then the price of shares of

    that company reduces. On the other hand if the investment organizations

    decide to make investment in a particular organization, share price of that

    organization increases.

    Hartal-strike: Hartal-strike has a relation with business aid industries.During strike production decreases but fixed expenses are borne by the

    companies. During these period companies profitability reduces.

    Continuous strike and Hartals adversely affect the production of the

    companies and they incur loss. Decrease in profitability and loss reduces

    share prices.

    Import and export policy of the government: Share prices alsofluctuate depending on import and export policy. If the government

    provides any special rebate, export facility on export of any particular

    goods, profitability of those exporting companies will probably increase.

    People become more interested to purchase the shares of those

    exporting companies under these facilities. This increases demands for

    shares and increases share prices. On other hand, if the mentioned

    facilities are withdrawn that the opposite happens.

    Conduct of members: Price fluctuation also happens depending onconduct of members and rumors, if any rumor can spread in favor of any

    particular company, share prices of that company will increase and vise

    versa. Again if any influential member intentionally acts in favor of any

    company or purchases shares of any particular company, then share

    prices of that company will increase.

    Other factors: Some other factors are also responsible for pricefluctuation of shares like change in any policy of the state, change in the

    members of ministry, civil war, election, international incidents etc.Besides for any random situation share price fluctuates such as sudden

    flood, landslide etc.

    4.5 DISTINCTION BETWEEN PRODUCES EXCHANGE AND STOCKEXCHANGE

    In which exchange products are bought and sold is known as produce exchange.

    On the other hand, stock exchange is a structured market where shares and

    securities of listed companies are bought and sold.

    There are various differences between these two exchanges discussed below:

    Nature of products: In stock exchange only shares, stocks and otherkinds of securities are bought and sold. In structured produce exchange

    nonperishable agricultural goods e.g. jute, cotton etc. are bought and

    sold.

    Nature of transactions: Transactions occur here according to name ofthe shares and securities. In produce exchange transactions ahead

    according to the classification of goods through showing samples.

    Quality of products: No judgment is applied here to measure the quality

    of shares. Companys image is considered to buy and sell of shares.Determination of quality of agricultural goods is required. Goods are

    classified depending on quality.

    Existence of products: Shares which have no existence in the sharemarket cannot be bought and sold. Through advance agreement in

    produce exchange buying and selling of goods can be accomplished even

    if there are no existences of those goods at present but can be produced

    in near future.

    Face-value: Each share and debenture in this exchange has a fixed face-value. Goods of produce exchange have no specific face-value.

    Safeguarding interests: Through stock exchange it is tried to developthe industrialization. In this exchange the interest of agricultural producers

    are tried to save through produce exchange.

    Objective: Collecting capital by selling shares is the main objective here.The objective of this market is procuring and supplying raw materials for

    industries.

    Market control: There is no scope of international transactions in stockexchange. By produce exchange trying to controlling the market

    internationally is visible.

    Rate of exchange: Share has no wholesale rate or price but in theproduce exchange goods are bought and sold at wholesale rate or price.

    Classification: Shares are classified here depending on companysperformances. Goods are classified in the produce exchange relying on

    quality.

    4.6 DISTINCTION BETWEEN MONEY MARKET AND CAPITAL MARKET

    Both money market and capital market are important in the financial market.

    Transactions of money and financial assets are occurred in both two markets.

    Several differences are visible between these two markets. Distinctions between

    money market and capital market are mentioned and discussed below:

  • 8/3/2019 04 Body

    25/31

    2 5 | P a g e

    Definition: The market where transactions of money and financial assetsare accomplished for short time is called money market. Capital market is

    meant that market where transactions of money and financial assets are

    occurred for a long period.

    Time: In money market transactions are accomplished for one or lessthan one year. In capital market transactions are for long time.

    Risks: Since investment of money market is for a short- term, the risk ofmoney is low. But in capital market the risks of money and loan defaulter

    are high.

    Instruments: Cash taka, treasury bills, commercial papers are used asthe instruments in money market. Shares, debentures, long-term bonds

    etc. are the instruments of capital market.

    Transaction costs: For fewer formalities in money market transactioncost is minimum. Transaction cost is high in capital market. Because

    many formalities are required in long-term transaction.

    Government involvement: Government is directly involved with moneymarket. Government tries to stable the economic process of a county

    through money market. But in capital government involvement is minimal.

    Only for controlling in a special time or to meet the demand of money

    government make an involvement with capital market.

    Association Limited on April 28, 1954. However, formal trading began in 1956,

    196 securities listed on the DSE with a total paid up capital of about Taka 4

    billion. On June 23, 1962 it was renamed as East Pakistan Stock Exchange

    Limited. After 1971, the trading activities of the Stock Exchange remained

    suppressed until 1976 due to the liberation war and the economic policy pursued

    by the government.

    paid up capital of Taka 137.52 million on the stock exchange. In May 13, 1964 itwas renamed as Dacca Stock Exchange Limited.

    5.1 FINDINGS

    I have identified negative side of the share market of Bangladesh.

    Lack of institutional investment: A strong capital market in any countrycannot be established based only on individual investments. To boost up

    the capital market institutional investment is required. In our country the

    number of institutional investment is very small, which is the main reason

    for long term depression of the share market.

    Manipulation in trading: In the share market of our country group of

    dishonest brokers and members exist who intentionally manipulate the

    share market by fictitious transactions depending upon the condition of

    the market. This results small investors loose everything all of their

    investment. On the other hand, few brokers become from nothing to

    everything. This type of manipulation is a hurdle for the development of

    the capital market because investors loose their reliance.

    Frustration of the investors: Slow economic activities, political unrest,

    economic depression of the South-East Asia and its negative impact and

    above all the continuous fall of share price create frustration in the mind of

    investors in our country. As a result, they (investors) do not want to invest

    their hard-earned money. But because of manipulation of a group of

    brokers, they have lost everything. Thats why the share market is not

    getting its desired speed.

    Shortage of fundamental based securities: One of the weaknesses of

    capital market in Bangladesh is that it lacks blue chips, good shares and

    debentures. Shortage of securities is another reason. Few types of blue

    chips are not sufficient enough to attract investors to the share market.

    Lack of transparency: The listed companies in the share market do not

    hold Annual General Meeting (AGM) regularly. Investors are not satisfied

    with the annual general report of most of the companies. They purchase

    shares at a high price but the declared dividend is low. This is one of the

    reasons that investors are not attracted to the share market.

    Poor supervision: The major function of Securities and Exchange

    Commission (SEC) is to control and monitor the share-market.

    Unfortunately SEC has failed to exercise its main function to control the

    share market. The commission is not taking any actions against the listed

    companies that violate the rules of SEC. Besides reluctance in

    investigation of manipulation of broker house, passing of time in h actions

    against them are some of the accusations against SEC. The weakness in

  • 8/3/2019 04 Body

    29/31

    2 9 | P a g e

    monitoring by the Securities and Exchange Co creates lack of reliance in

    the minds of investors.

    Lack of clear-cut concept about the market: Most of the investors of

    our county do not have clear concept about share market. They do not

    make investment based on the assets and liabilities or fundamental of

    companies rather on rumors. As a result, investors are negatively

    affected.

    Lack of co-ordination: There are two bodies in our share market, one is

    the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that controls the share

    market and the other is the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) and Chittagong

    Stock Exchange (CSF). Often conflict arises between these two bodies

    regarding circuit breaker, lock in, netting vs. rolling. The lack of co-

    ordination between these two bodies is clear that acts as barriers in the

    development of market.

    Tax burden: Tax rate of the listed companies in our country is very high.Thats why companies are relucr topsy dividend to shareholders. Besides,

    tax at source is deducted on dividend to shareholders which is double

    taxation. Lack of tax rebate cannot speed up the market.

    Lack of public confidence: After the share market fall in 1996 none of

    the involved persons were punished or brought to law. The small

    investors who have lost lacks of their invest and became hand to mouth

    have no confidence on the share-market. Lack of public confidence is one

    of the major problems of share- market Prompt steps should be taken to

    remove these problems of share-market. In this case the concerned

    including the government should come forward. Only then share market

    will be able to overcome its problems and play its role properly.

    5.2 CONCLUSIONS

    Business institution like share market is the most sensitive organisation of oureconomy. If economy raises incomes alleviates poverty and moves the countryahead. And in this big capital market DSE plays an important role to attract theinvestors .The country still must guard against threats for its capital markets. So,

    all markets need independent and transparent regulatory oversight to investorsto minimize risk. DSE has gained the confidence of public and is able to attractmore and more funds.

    DSE will introduce internet based trading system stock trading .Through thissystem any body can buy and sell stocks by giving the order through internet,usually on a brokers form. And also the people can observe the market situationon the internet that will enable e-commerce facilities in the country. At the end of

    Institute for Promotion of Business in Bangladesh plays a vital role in economy ofBangladesh. So, its a great advantage to us that we were assigned in this topic.

    5.3 RECOMMENDATIONS

    In the previous chapter I have talked about some problems which I haveobserved in Institution for Promotion in Business, specially on share market.Its my responsibility to contribute something in my workings so here I suggestsome recommendations of the identified problems.

    Share market improves the economic condition ol any country. So, concaitraftonshould be given to improve share market ultimately to progress the economy of a

    country. Following mentioned steps can be taken of improvement of share-market:

    1. Many investment and merchant banks should be given parmission to

    conduct their operations.

    2. Members of stock exchange must be intreased.

    3. Manipulation of shares should be stopped through effective strategies.

    4. Supply of financial tools must be increased according to demand.

    5. Shares of government business organizations should be sold in the stock

    exchange.

    6. People must be educated about the share business.

    7. Lock-in system should be started for foreign investors and it must be ass

    wed that those investors cannot return their investment before a certain

    period.

    8. Being the directors of listed companies must be ptohibited to be brokers

    and they should be prevented from direct investment in share business.

    9. Publicizing wrong information in prospectus must be under sentence.

    10. Among investors and officials of SEC who will be hivolved in gambling

    and manipulating in share business must be under sentence through laws.

    11. Dishonest brokers must be punished.

    These are the recommendations of the identified problems and it is reallyexpected that these recommendations will help share marke in many ways.
