Channel: ClayTrader

[0]
now I've done videos on how to make
[1]
money from stocks how a stock works but
[4]
never who exactly is determining the
[7]
price of a stock the value of the stock
[9]
let's take a look at that
[19]
I want to just give credit where
[20]
credit's due I did not come up with this
[22]
idea
[22]
thanks to you as viewers somebody left a
[25]
question and as obvious as it is to me
[27]
something that's been in the market a
[28]
long time when I put myself in something
[31]
else you say oh you know what that that
[32]
makes good sense
[33]
so let's first just get to the comment
[35]
that was made and then we're going to
[36]
tackle this right off the get-go so Azra
[39]
Aziz oh sorry if I mispronounced your
[41]
name asked who determines the value of a
[43]
stock so yeah how is this price being
[46]
determined and when I say this next part
[48]
please don't turn off the video I
[49]
promise I'll try to boil it down and
[51]
make it half way entertaining but at the
[54]
end of the day it's all about this right
[55]
here and if you've ever taken an
[56]
economics class then you've heard a
[59]
supply verse demand and that is how a
[65]
stock is being you know price how the
[68]
value is being determined but let's not
[70]
look at it as supply and demand
[71]
let's look at it in a much more
[73]
practical way and we're going to call
[75]
supply give right if you want to give
[80]
something to somebody another way you
[82]
could say that it's here I'm going to
[83]
supply you with this I mean I want to
[85]
give it to you so supply associate with
[88]
give and then demand there's a one I
[96]
demand what I demand you give this to me
[100]
right you want something that's what a
[102]
demand is like when a in a hostage
[105]
situation a person taking the hostage is
[107]
making demands meaning they want
[109]
something in and you know in regards to
[112]
the hostage so forget supply and demand
[115]
I mean these are just boring in economic
[117]
terms let's just look at things in terms
[118]
of give and why and my idea here and my
[122]
goal is to hopefully insult your
[124]
intelligence be like a thanks Captain
[125]
Obvious that's that's yeah thanks thanks
[128]
a lot so let's just quickly hop into
[130]
this hopefully this video shouldn't be
[131]
that long but if a lot of people want
[135]
something so a lot what is that going to
[142]
do to a price of something if a lot of
[144]
people want it like just I want it I
[148]
want it there's all sorts of people that
[150]
want it that's going to cause what
[152]
prices to go down if a lot of people
[154]
want to buy something or prices to go up
[157]
it's going to cause prices to go up
[159]
right because a lot of people want it on
[161]
the flip side what happens if there are
[164]
a lot of people that want to give
[169]
something I don't want that I don't want
[171]
that here let me give it to you let me
[172]
give it you everybody wants to give you
[173]
something or in other words you know I
[175]
really just want to sell something get
[177]
rid of it give give give what is it
[179]
going to do to the price of something if
[181]
everybody just wants to give it you know
[182]
sell it get rid of it well a lot of
[185]
people want to get rid of something give
[187]
it what prices are going to go down
[190]
right and let's apply this to the world
[193]
of stock market if a company researcher
[196]
you know a company if you watch my past
[198]
videos you've heard me talk about pizzas
[200]
an example so let's say a company
[201]
specializes in pepperoni pizza I've used
[204]
this before and a study comes out that
[206]
says pepperoni is the worst thing ever
[209]
invented if you eat it you're for every
[212]
bit of pepperoni you're going to lose
[214]
three years off your life what do you
[216]
think is going to happen to the price of
[218]
a company that specializes in pepperoni
[221]
pizza are people going to wanna what
[225]
those shares are people going to want to
[226]
start to give them sell them sell them
[228]
well of course who is going to want to
[230]
hold on to a share who's going to want
[231]
to hang on to something that has been
[234]
proven now to be super unhealthy for
[236]
people so of course people are going to
[238]
want to give it get rid of it or you
[240]
know trading lingo sell it and when a
[242]
lot of people want to sell that's prices
[245]
are going down on the flip side if
[249]
something comes out pepperoni pizza add
[251]
three years to your life for every piece
[253]
that you eat what are people going to
[255]
want to do as far as companies that
[256]
specialize in pepperoni
[258]
they're going to want hey I want a part
[260]
of that I want those shares I want to
[262]
get involved wat wat wat wat what a lot
[265]
of people want to get involved what is
[267]
that going to do those the prices ton of
[269]
people want it those prices are going up
[271]
so what determines the value of a stock
[275]
well just how many people want to give
[278]
it or how many people want it and that's
[281]
it the more people that want the higher
[283]
prices are going to go the more people
[285]
that
[286]
give the lower prices we're going to go
[290]
that's what supply and demand it and
[291]
it's a constant battle prices are always
[293]
changing and the different prices are
[296]
going to you know determine and they're
[297]
going to fluctuate all the time you can
[300]
watch the video that I did kind of
[301]
entitled the ultimate game and that kind
[303]
of maps out the whole question which
[306]
revolves around supply and demand and
[307]
you know why you got to be pretty witty
[309]
and why you got to be pretty good at
[310]
determining things because you're always
[312]
trying to figure out when is the watt
[314]
going to overwhelm the give when is the
[316]
give going to overwhelm the lock and
[318]
that's what trading is we'll put a link
[320]
to that video down below but that's
[321]
what's going to determine the value of
[324]
the stock the market itself how many
[326]
people want the stock or how many people
[328]
want to give it how many people want to
[329]
sell it or in other words going back to
[332]
supply to somebody else you know I just
[334]
don't want that stock anymore so
[336]
hopefully that answers your question and
[337]
hopefully that just gives you a good
[340]
idea of what exactly and how exactly a
[343]
value of a stock is being determined
