Trading the stock market equities is fun and jaw-breaking. Excitement and energy pushes through my body when stock market exchanges open during trading hours. Stock market equities have a lot of returns to offer to investors compared to investing in bonds and commodities. Stock market returns and earnings depend on the business cycle. Stock markets are risky compared to bonds and commodities, risk compensates for the returns you get for buying equities. You can actually make more money investing in equities than any other investments in one year compared to other investment alternatives, except in the case for cryptocurrencies. Stock market and equity derivatives are easier to analyse than commodities and foreign exchange market derivatives. The stock market and equity derivatives also offer dividends periodically despite you holding a valueble position that could be sold in the future with added value, if that is not the case dividends can offset losses in a portfolio. Commodities and foreign exchange markets do not offer anything to offset while trading futures contracts. Nonetheless, you can offset losses by trading options as hedge positions in your portfolio for futures positions.
