How did buying on margin work?

Buying on margin allowed investors to borrow money from their broker to purchase stocks. This meant they only had to provide a percentage of the total cost of the stock as collateral, while the broker would lend them the rest. The investor would then pay interest on the borrowed amount. If the stock price increased, the investor could sell the stock and repay the loan with the profits. However, if the stock price decreased, the broker could issue a margin call, requiring the investor to deposit more funds to cover the loss.


How can the growing prices of commodities like rice and petrol be reduced?

There are three factors that go into setting the price of a good. The first is Cost of Goods Sold, or COGS. What goes into this depends on what you are selling and how high up in the supply chain you are--someone selling rice will have a much longer list of expenses than someone selling sand. Next is profit. The third is a supply/demand factor. The purpose of this is to equalize supply and demand: if you have more people who want your goods than you have goods to sell, you raise the price until demand goes down. Conversely, if you have an oversupply of goods, you reduce the price until demand rises. That's the theory, at least; it doesn't work consistently, though. If you have an oversupply of liver and onions you could reduce the price to free and still have an oversupply--you have an oversupply not because the price is too high, but because most people don't want what you are selling. There are three ways to reduce the price of a good. The first is to reduce the COGS. Next, you can reduce the profit margin. The most common and effective way to reduce the price is to increase the amount available for sale.
