Market

Specific trading place

A market is a place where goods are bought and sold—originally an open space where vendors gather, now also indoor spaces like supermarkets and farmers' markets.

The word extends to any arena of commercial exchange: the stock market, the housing market, the labor market.

A market for something is demand: Is there a market for handmade furniture?

To market something is to promote and sell it.

Market forces are the collective effect of buyers and sellers on prices and availability.
