A stock market has not been confirmed for GTA 6. GTA V’s market, where mission choices moved share prices, was one of the best single-player money makers.

How GTA V’s market worked (history)

  • Two exchanges: LCN, driven by single-player events, and BAWSAQ, tied to online activity.
  • Lester’s assassination missions targeted rival companies, letting you buy before the hit and sell after.
  • Patience paid: the biggest gains came from timing purchases around story missions.

What we will check at launch

  • Whether any in-game app lets you trade.
  • Whether missions affect company prices.
  • Whether the Criminal Profile system changes how jobs pay.
