LEVERAGE: The use of credit or loans to enhance speculation in the financial markets. Suppose, for example, that you take the $1,000 in your bank account to your stock broker and purchase $1,000 worth of stocks, bonds, or whatever. A leveraged purchase would let you use your $1,000 to buy, let's say, $10,000 worth of stocks or bonds. The remaining $9,000 of the purchase price comes from a loan. See also | speculation | financial markets | corporate stock | bond | margin requirement | stock market | bank panic |

In both case, the market imbalance prompts the price to change, moving toward the equilibrium price.
