One of the significant incentives of the investors to enter the capital market is to earn profits and finally increase wealth. However, one of the most important concerns of the investors while investing in the stock market is the liquidity of the stocks. Thus, the high liquidity of the stock market reduces the risk of non-liquidity of the stock, as well as reduces the cost of capital accumulation for the companies and firms whose shares are offered on the stock market. Thus, liquidity of the stock market can be a good context for absorbing and accumulating savings and long-term investments. Having increased income growth, it can change income and poverty inequality. The purpose of the current study was to examine the income growth from stock market liquidity on income inequality and poverty for a selection of developed and developing countries. To this end, panel data from 2000 to 2017 was used. The results showed that income growth due to stock market liquidity reduced income inequalities and poverty in developing countries, while it increased the income inequalities and poverty in developed countries.
