    Job satisfaction describes how content an individual is with his or her job. It describes a positive feeling about a job, resulting from an evaluation of its factors. There are a variety of factors that can influence a person’s level of job satisfaction. Some of these factors include the level of pay and benefits, the perceived fairness of the promotion system within a company, the quality of the working conditions, leadership and social relationships, the job itself (the variety of tasks involved, the interest and challenge the job generates, and the clarity of the job description/requirements). The happier people are within their job, the more satisfied they are said to be. Job satisfaction is not the same as motivation, although it is clearly linked. Job design aims to enhance job satisfaction and performance methods include job rotation, job enlargement and job enrichment. Other influences on satisfaction include the management style and culture, employee involvement, empowerment and autonomous workgroups. Job satisfaction is a very important attribute which is frequently measured by organizations. The most common way of measurement is the use of rating scales where employees report their reactions to their jobs. Questions relate to relate of pay, work responsibilities, variety of tasks, promotional opportunities the work itself and co-workers. Some questioners ask yes or no questions while others ask to rate satisfaction on 1 – 5 scale where 1 represents “not all satisfied” and 5 represents “extremely satisfied”.

    Stock Index

    A stock index is a statistical method of measuring the value of a section of the stock
    market or to find out the performance of underlying stocks. It is the statistical indicator
    which shows trends in investing patterns and used in the measurement and reporting of
    changes in the market value of a group of stocks or shares from an original value. As the
    stock index changes, it means that the value of stocks is changing.
    It is a tool used by investors and financial managers to describe the market, and to
    compare the return on specific investments.
    Calculation of stock index: There are two ways to calculate stock indices. They are:
    Price weighted index such as the Dow Jones industrial average
    Market cap weighted index such as the NASDAQ, Standard and Poors 500 etc.
    The market is differently tracked by different stocks indices it depends upon three factors.
    Those are:
    (1) The averaging method which is used to establish the index
    (2) The index broad based
    (3) Whether the assigning of the weight of averaging method is based on market price or
    market capitalization.
    Forex:
    In simple words, exchange rate means how much one currency is worth in terms of
    another currency. If we can buy $ 1 with BDT 80, the exchange rate of the two
    currencies would be $1 = BDT 80
    .
    There are two types of exchange rate: Fixed and Floating.
    The fixed exchange rate doesnt fluctuate because of government intervention. The
    floating exchange rates on the other hand keeps on changing continuously just like the
    stock market. Government intervention is almost negligible.
    So, which type of exchange rate system does Bangladesh have? In Bangladesh, we have a
    Managed Floating Exchange Rate System.
    Let see the two very commonly used terminologies which causes fluctuation in currency.
    Currency Appreciation &
    Currency Depreciation
    When BDT is said to be appreciating it means that our currency is gaining strength and
    its value is increasing with respect to dollar. Suppose, currently, the exchange rate is BDT
    80 = $1. If the exchange rate is say BDT 72 = $1. This means rupee has appreciated or
    gotten stronger by approx 10%.
    When BDT depreciates it means our currency is getting weaker & its value is falling with
    respect to dollar. The exchange rate is at BDT 88 = $1. This means rupee has depreciated
    or gotten weaker by approx 10%.

    Why does the BDT appreciate or depreciate?


    BDTs appreciation or depreciation against the dollar depends on the change in demand
    and supply for both the currencies. If the demand for BDT is comparatively high, BDT
    appreciates; if low, it depreciates.
    The important question here is what factors drive the demand for a currency? They are:
    Interest Rate:
    Inflation Rate:
    Export-Import:
    Trading in currencies in the Forex market:
    Impact of Rupee appreciation/depreciation
    Impact on economy: Exchange rate fluctuation has a significant impact on the overall
    economy of a country. BDT appreciation against US dollar is an indication of the
    strengthening of Bangladeshi economy with respect to US economy.
    Impact on foreign investors: If a foreign investor invests in Bangladeshi stock market
    and even if its value doesnt change in 1 year, hell earn profit if BDT appreciates and
    make a loss if it depreciates.
    So, a continuously appreciating BDT would lead to greater investment by the FIIs.
    Impact on industry/companies: Appreciation of the BDT makes imports cheaper and
    exports expensive. On the other hand depreciation of the BDT makes imports expensive
    and exports cheaper.
