Brownian motion
Definition
A theory or model that is used to explain random motion. Traditionally, Brownian motion was developed to explain the random movement seen in suspended particles, but is commonly applied today to the stock market. Brownian motion is just one theory that attempts to explain stock market fluctuations, along with the random walk theory and Markov process.
