Introduction To Stock Markets

by Linda MARY

It is everyone’s dream to enjoy a life of riches and that means earning enough and retiring. The only way you can earn that much is because of the fact that you ahve made good amount of moeny either by inheritance or by way of stock markets.

You can amke money in stock market eitherby buying a stake in a good company and then trying to make that company profitable and then sell that at a later stage or you can buy stock of that company and sell that at a later stage ata good profit.

No risk and no gain is the mantra. Stock market is not for the faint hearted. You should strive to make good money out of the stock markets by investing in a particular stock. Your shareholding will be less but then you do not worry about the stock holding but about when you will make good money by selling your stake.

Before you take your cheque book out and start looking at companies to buy for $1000 , you should know the stock market basics and then start investing to make more money. It is absolutely very important to understand all the stock market terms and technical lingo which gets thrown around quite a bit to make some serious money in the market.

The understanding of the stock market is very simple. It is like that if you have ABC company and you want to raise money you simpley part with some fraction of the company. To part with some fraction you create something called shares for each company and those shares will represent each fraction and then you sell those shares at price.

Let us say you create 100 shares of the company , that means the total share capital of the company is $1000. Now ideally to maintain a majority shareholding XYZ company can sell 49 shares and still be a mahority shareholder.

Assuming you have $1 shares and 51 shares in a company ABC then you can sell those shares at a much better value than $1 value if the stock market thinks that the company is going to make good profits and they eare willing to pay you a higher pricer than the original value.

Stock exchange and stock markets are a lesson you need to know before you start investing.
