This is a great example of how factors from house holds go into firms, which in turn helps the house hold. Many people are too scared to invest in the stock market right now, since there is so much risk involved with the volatile market. However, since the Fed has interest prices at nearly zero, the stock market may be the only way for investors to make a profit- thus forcing the economy to grow. Too bad it is a slow process and people aren't willing to take the risk.

I agree with R10508054, people are scared of the risk it take of buying stock. however there are many different kinds of stock, and many of these are not near as risky. Stock options are options which are based upon a single underlying stock (such as GOOG for Google). Stock options can be used to trade a stock without buying or selling the actual stock. This type of stock has a much lower margin which mean a much lower risk.

I think that for a while when America was in it's production and sales era, stock was a great way to invest and help America prosper. However, today after what happened with the stock market in 2008. I think it is almost as if we need to "do some spring cleaning." There are so many different corporations to put stock into and with the banks and money at the rate of inflation, I think it makes people more skeptical and hesitant. People today are living in the now rather than willing to put their faith in the american way of innovation and new ideas. Many want a sure thing, and the stock market is not. Their are so many different ways to enter the market now it is almost as if the only reason to enter is to hold on to the economy for ones own means of survival rather than invest to make it grow for the better of the economy and society as a whole.

The choices in which people invest in stock is very important to. With Common Stock, the stockholders have a say in the company as long as they still hold a share and the stock is in the "voting" class. Then there is Preferred Stock. Preferred stockholders usually do not have a say in the company, but they receive their dividends before common stock.

This cartoon provides viewers with a dumbed-down version of how the complicated and intricate Stock Exchange process works. From the initial steps (such as getting a corporation charter and recieving a loan from an investment bank) to the further steps (being reviewed/approved by the SEC). A company that wishes to expand must follow each step accordingly and then they are able to issue stocks, which in turn help them produce more goods at a more efficient rate due to financial strength added by investors. This video is truly helpful for those confused by the necessary steps needed in order to become a public corporation.

By watching the video, I learned how stock market works. People in America should watch this video so that they could learn how to buy or sell stocks. Companies can grow bigger only if we open our wallet and buy the stocks. People think that it is risky to invest on stocks but it is not true. As in the video, it shows each step how the company grows. Investment such as stock is the right way to make the economy roll.

This is a very informative video show how the stock market work from begin to end, a very important subject that I think everyone should learn. Not only the stock market help America where we are right now, but it also help many company grow rapidly, and also help investor make soo much money out of it. This make me think Economic is a very important subject, and why I should study more in depth about it.

The video seems to be a dirty government conspiracy, but in the most practical sense because it appeals to the era it was obviously produced in. They make sure to infasize that the male is the bread winner thus only has the "leisure to dream" while the female is simply a trophy wife and has nothing but leisure time on her hands. The couple is clearly living in a time of peace, verses war time, because he has plenty of money to afford a life's luxuries. During war times the government promoted buying stocks and bonds to obviously raise money for the war, but during this "down time" of prosperity they cleverly created this video possibly to raise money to pay off the debt from prior wars.

When it comes to educating the masses about certain subjects, this is was the way to do it. This cartoon was used to educated kids and adults about the stock market. I remember when school house rock was big on Saturday mornings. Of course for this video, it was made in 1952 so the male bread winner theory was still in effect. It is just showing the basics of how the stock market works, which was something everyone, I hope, did in high school.

I like how the video started out with a “Typical” household and shows how it can grow into industrial expansion. It is a good representation of the stock exchange process in a simple example. It shows how once you start something small it becomes big and involves more and more money. A lot of people are needed to run the stock market, which creates many jobs. It explains how yesterday’s saving helped build and finance things like railroads, farms, electricity, and many other industries. Labor and capital and management are able to thrive when there are people who invest their money. Industrial expansion creates jobs. This video emphasizes that people don’t need to keep their money locked up, but instead need to invest it in stocks and bonds.

This is a good and a bad thing. At some point the owner of the company loses all leverage on what goes on in the firm. It's ran by the board who gets the orders from the stockholders. And if I was a stockholder, all I'd want is more money, faster. This mindset starts to neglect the long term efficiency of a firm, which can ultimately result in the closing of the firm.

This shows a good relationship of how the households and firms are intertwined in economics. The video presents the information in a way that is understandable for a young audience in the most simple fashion. Many are skeptical about the stock market right now with good reason. What I got from this video is that we as a country need to consume more thus making the economy prosper.

This video was very interesting and I liked the way it showed things. The stock market to me is just like farming, ranching or even life. It’s a gamble in itself and the only way to win is to get lucky or know the system. Knowing the different types of stock and the risk factor is key when it comes to buying stock. The stock market is the basis of this economy, without it, well we wouldn’t be here. Another big thing in stock markets is corporations. This video did an awesome job on showing us how, the importance and the process of corporations. The video showed the way investors influence the corporations and how that in return gives the people more jobs. If more people could understand that, then we would have a thriving economy.

I enjoyed the video, it was a very simplistic way of showing the stock exchange process. Everything from using an investment banker to getting approval by the SEC. Any company becoming profitable enough to expand and needs the help of investors to run more efficiently, needs to follow these steps accordingly.

I enjoyed this video because It shows you how a business can become publicly traded in a way that is easy to understand. I found it interesting how the video explained how the people who invest in common stock help businesses grow and help the economy grow. I think this video would be great for younger generations to help them learn early about the stock market and how it affects the economy. I do feel like the video should have talked a little more about the risks involved in trading stock, but overall the video was very interesting and informative.

This video really shows how the market comes to a circular flow. As one manages to come with capital, others are willing to invest which then allows the creation of jobs. This brings in retrospective to the occurrence of 2008, the crashing of markets. All around this event hurt the whole circular flow such as employment and society as a whole. Taking away from the financial aspect of the markets, these corporations should emphasize more on ethics to avoid hurt in the circular flow.

This reminds me of the many people who say America is a land of opportunities, where dreams come true. True, but these opportunities are not guaranteed, they are associated with different kinds of risks. A typical house hold can start a business pretty easily, if capital is available. On the other hand, the fluctuation in the economy may require a business owner to incorporate with any means to sustain the business, like selling shares. This could be a very beneficial to the owner and the economy as a whole, or it could result in to devastation if no one buys these shares. So studying the stock market carefully, before entering it, is the only way for avoiding failure, as displayed in this video.

A good, simple explanation for laymen of how the SEC and the NYSE work. Anyone hoping to build a portfolio of investments who has not learned of the intricacies of buying securities and common stock should start here. The video is essentially ageless, other than the animation.

I believe this video was good in explaining to someone who really doesn't have any clue about how the stock market works. Although the video doesn't really show the risk that one can lose in the stocks. They seem to make it all fine and dandy. I also was able to learn a few more new things watching the video so it was beneficial to me.

This video is a very good representation of what the stock market is all about. It is very simple to understand and adequately explains how each step leading up to getting stocks in the stock market works. it also clearly explains why having stock in a company is essential to the growth of our nations economy. Great video for someone to watch who is just learning about the stock market and what it is all about.

I thought the video shown above was very informative and showed me a lot more than I originally knew about stock and a company going public. The reason for taking a company public is so you can sell some of your stock for money to fund your business, but there are certain steps you must go through first to make this process a reality. First you have to go to the state capitol to obtain permits and a corporation charter. After you get approve for this charter then you must find an investment banker to help you, and invest in your company. However before he can sell any stock the owner must go to the SEC for approval. The investment banker pays the owner of the company the amount of money he needs to expand in exchange for a certain number of shares in the company.

This video was surprisingly informative and effective in providing a simplistic view on the processes involved with the stock market. I agree with some of the earlier comments about this video being shown to more people regardless of their fields of studies. I have encountered too many people who have no idea how anything in the market works. If more people understood the processes than I feel like we could form a stronger, or at least a more knowledgable, economy. There are several processes involved in forming stronger business and alot of the small business's end up falling behind because they have a basic understanding of business affairs but little knowledge on successfully growing their establishments into bigger players.

This movie is a good simple way to explain how the stock exchange works and what can be done with a growing corporation. There are many processes that business's must go through and many small business's lag behind because they are uniformed on how to grow into corporate business.
