A little learning, right here
Let’s understand a stock.
A made-up company
When you recharge with ABC…
You pay to use calls and internet. You are using a service.
You are a customer.Owning a small part
When you own a stock…
ABC Limited
Think of the company as one big pizza.
If you own one ABC stock, you own a tiny part of that company.
You are a stockholder, a part-owner.ABC is a made-up name, used only to explain the idea.
A real company is cut into far more slices than this picture shows, so one stock is a very small part.
