How Stock Prices Are Determined — The Balance Between Supply and Demand
How Stock Prices Are Determined — The Balance Between Supply and Demand The stock market fundamentally operates on the law of supply and demand. When more investors seek to buy a company’s shares, prices rise. Conversely, when more investors sell, prices fall. This balance is the foundation of market price movements. According to market analysts, factors such as a company’s performance, investor psychology, and the broader economic environment also influence prices. When large institutional investors place massive buy orders and sellers are insufficient, the price often rises temporarily. Later, as the market rebalances, the price stabilizes again.

From Village to Victory: How Rajan K.C. from Okhaldhunga Mastered Nepal’s Share Market Born in a small village in Okhaldhunga, Rajan K.C. never dreamed of sitting in a fancy office or flying abroad for a job. What he did instead was far more inspiring: he built a successful career in Nepal’s share market from scratch — all from his mobile phone. Rajan’s journey began in 2016 (2073 B.S.) when he came across a Facebook post mentioning the “NEPSE” index. Curious and clueless, he dived into YouTube videos and online news articles, eventually figuring out how to apply for his first IPO — that of Kapilvastu Cement.

Why is there fear regarding the proposed amendments in the Banking and Financial Institution Act (BAFIA)?
Why is there fear regarding the proposed amendments in the Banking and Financial Institution Act (BAFIA)? Two sections that seek to distinguish between "bankers" and "businesspeople" have been discussed here: The first is Section 52(1), which states: "A bank or financial institution shall not provide any loan or facility to a person who has a significant ownership in the bank or financial institution or to a related party." The key terms in this section are "related," "person," and "bank." According to the definition in Section 2, "bank" refers to commercial banks and infrastructure development banks. The definition of "related person" includes both natural persons (individuals) and legal persons (companies and institutions). However, the term "significant ownership" refers only to natural persons, not institutions. Therefore, according to the proposed amendment, a bank or financial institution cannot provide loans or facilities to a related person or institution. However, such related persons or institutions may still borrow from other banks and financial institutions. The current law does not contain the term "related," and the proposed amendment clarifies this by making the provision more liberal. This change does not appear to have any significant impact.
