What is Bid-Ask Spread?
——————————————–
The bid-ask spread refers to the difference between the Ask and Bid prices. The “Ask Price” is the lowest price at which a prospective seller of stock is willing to sell the security they hold, while the “Bid Price” is the highest price a prospective buyer is willing to pay for the security.
Formula
——————————————–
Bid-Ask Spread Formula = (Ask Price – Bid Price)
Interpretation
——————————————–
– If the Bid-Ask spread is low, investors can buy and sell assets with minimal price fluctuations.
– For investors, external market liquidity is a significant source of risk.
