The objective of the study was to establish relationship between the stock market measures and economic growth in Tanzania. In order to achieve the objective, we need to examine the impact of stock market capitalization, total value of share traded and turnover on Tanzanian economy based on the time series data from 2000 - 2011. The unit root test and wnteestq (Portmanteau) tests were carried out. The findings suggest that Dar-es Salam Stock Exchange (DSE) has no effect on economic growth of Tanzania. We recommended that Tanzania government should establish financial policies, in order to encourage companies develop financial stock market culture, and enhance to push companies to initiate Initial Public Offering (IPO) instead of bank loans when money is needed to increase their investment.
