In a perfectly competitive market, the price of the product is determined by the market forces of supply and demand, and firms are price-takers.<\/p>\n<p>The stock market is a market for securities, such as stocks and bonds. In the stock market, there are many buyers and sellers of securities, and no single buyer or seller has any significant market power. However, the securities traded in the stock market are not homogeneous products.
