The main reason for investing in the financial markets is for capital gains. This is the return on investment which arises due to the price differences of the securities in the financial market. The investors buy and sell shares in the stock exchange market hoping to make a gain. They will buy the securities when the security price are low and sell them when the prices increase. The gain due to the differences in price is known as the capital gain.
