Features: This book is a specialized economic monograph that focuses on the unique professional market phenomenon in China. Professional markets are market forms that concentrate on the trading of a category or several similar categories of goods, primarily engaging in spot wholesale operations while also catering to retail. Traditionally, people only refer to market forms that conduct tangible commodity transactions as professional markets; in reality, the scope of professional markets extends far beyond this, as they should also include the trading of intangible goods. This book is divided into eight chapters. After exploring chapters such as Chapter 1: Introduction to Professional Markets, Chapter 2: Investment in Professional Markets, Chapter 3: The Landscape of Professional Markets, Chapter 4: Supply in Professional Markets, Chapter 5: Supply and Demand Balance in Professional Markets, and Chapter 6: Professional Markets and Industrial Structure Adjustment, the book particularly delves into the relationship between professional markets and China's industrialization in Chapter 7. Then, in Chapter 8, it also explores the connection between professional markets and economic globalization.
