What Are Shares?

Shares, also known as stocks or equities, represent ownership in a company. When you buy shares of a company, you become a shareholder and gain rights to a portion of the company's assets and earnings. Shares are traded on stock exchanges, where investors buy and sell them based on market conditions.

How Does Shares Trading Work? Shares trading involves buying and selling stocks through a brokerage platform. Investors aim to profit from price fluctuations by purchasing shares at a lower price and selling them at a higher price. Companies issue shares to raise capital for business expansion and operations.

Key Components of Shares Trading:

Stock Exchanges – Shares are traded on exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Nasdaq, and London Stock Exchange (LSE).
Brokerage Accounts – Investors need a brokerage account to trade shares.
Market Orders and Limit Orders – A market order executes a trade at the current price, while a limit order specifies a desired price.
Dividends – Some companies pay dividends, distributing a portion of profits to shareholders.
Market Capitalization – Companies are categorized as large-cap, mid-cap, or small-cap based on their market value. Trading shares involves buying and selling ownership stakes in public companies, aiming to profit from price fluctuations. Shares are a key component of a diversified personal portfolio, offering stability and balance as part of risk management. Including assets of different types and risk levels can enhance portfolio performance. For example, buying 10 Apple shares at $141.83 each and selling them after a week at $144.97 per share would yield a profit of $31.40.
