Answer:
all of the above characterize dealer markets.
- no time-consuming search for a fair deal.
- a guarantee of order fulfillment because the dealer holds an inventory of securities.
- improved market efficiency because dealers provide continuous bid and ask prices for securities.
Step-by-step explanation:
A dealer market is a market where financial dealers post their trading prices (the buying and selling price of stocks, bonds, foreign currency, etc.). The largest dealer market in the US is Nasdaq where stocks are traded electronically. The main difference between a dealer market and a regular auction market like the NYSE is that no bidding takes place since operations are done in a split second.
