What are Shares ?

Shares represent units of ownership in a company, allowing investors to buy a stake in that business. When you purchase shares, you become a shareholder and gain a claim on the company’s assets and earnings.

Here are some key points about shares:

Ownership

Forex is widely traded by central banks, financial institutions, corporations, and individual traders, making it one of the most dynamic markets globally.

Value Appreciation

The value of your shares can increase or decrease based on the company’s performance, market conditions, and investor sentiment. When a company grows and becomes more profitable, the value of its shares often rises, leading to potential capital gains for investors.

Dividends

Many companies distribute a portion of their profits to shareholders in the form of dividends. These payments provide a way for investors to earn income in addition to any potential capital gains from selling their shares.

Types of Shares

There are two main types of shares—common shares and preferred shares. Common shares usually come with voting rights and the potential for dividends, while preferred shares generally offer fixed dividends and have priority over common shares in the event of liquidation.

Market Trading

Shares are bought and sold on stock exchanges, such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or the NASDAQ, and their prices fluctuate based on supply and demand.Investing in shares can be a way to grow your wealth over time, but it also carries risks, as the value of shares can be volatile and dependent on various factors, including economic conditions and company performance.
