The U.S. stock market represents one of the largest and most active capital markets globally, exerting significant influence on the global economy and financial systems, primarily manifested through:
- Massive market capitalization, encompassing numerous globally influential enterprises;
- High trading volume and superior liquidity, attracting global investor participation;
- Robust regulatory framework, characterized by well-established oversight and legal systems that ensure market stability and investor protection.
These features contribute to the market's strong innovative capacity and dynamism, with rapid iterations of financial instruments and trading mechanisms that drive global capital market development. Market globalization further enhances capital mobility and integration. However, U.S. market volatility simultaneously impacts global risk sentiment and preferences, directly influencing worldwide economic trends and policy directions.
