Stock Trading: An Overview
Stock trading involves buying and selling shares in publicly traded companies. This typically occurs on stock exchanges.
When people buying shares of a company, they effectively become a small part-owner of that company and have some claim on its assets and earnings, in the form of dividends and/or capital appreciation.
The value of the shares depends on some factors, including:
- The company’s financial performance
- The company’s outlook
- The company’s overall market conditions
- The company’s investor sentiment
