Market Speculators

Market speculators are individuals or entities that buy and sell financial assets, like stocks or commodities, primarily to profit from short-term price fluctuations. Unlike investors who hold assets for long-term growth or income, speculators analyze market trends, news, and data to make informed bets on price movements. Their activity can add liquidity to markets but also introduces higher risk and volatility, as their actions are driven by anticipation of price changes rather than the intrinsic value of the assets.
