Grammar
In which/where
Hi,
I'm reading a book about economics, and I have a question about the usage of in which and where.
Stock markets, where company shares (stocks) are bought and sold(...)
Reading some rules about the usage, I thought in which would be more appropiate. I guess it's not.
Or is the book wrong?

"where" seems fine to me. In fact I prefer it to "in which" in this case.

AnonymousStock markets, where"Markets", in the broader sense, are places, so "where" is completely appropriate. "in which" is not wrong, however.
