Stock

A stock is a type of investment that represents partial ownership in a company. When you buy stocks, you become a shareholder, which means you own a piece of the company. Each piece is called a share. As a shareholder, you may benefit from the company’s success through potential increases in the stock price or by receiving a share of the company’s profits, known as dividends. However, stock prices can go up and down, so it’s important to carefully consider your investment decisions and understand the risks involved.
