Fair market value (FMV) is the price a willing buyer and a willing seller would agree on for an asset when neither is under pressure and both have full information. For investors, FMV is a baseline for judging whether a stock, bond, property or business is priced reasonably—like checking if a used car’s listed price matches what similar cars actually sell for—so it helps decide whether to buy, sell or hold.
