The obligation market, or security showcase, is the field where interest in credits are purchased and sold. There is no single physical trade for bonds. Exchanges are for the most part made between intermediaries or huge establishments, or by singular speculators.  

The value showcase, or the securities exchange, is the field where stocks are purchased and sold. The term incorporates the entirety of the commercial centers, for example, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the Nasdaq, and the London Stock Exchange (LSE), and numerous others.
