Investing 101
by Erin Papworth
Let's start at the very beginning…
A stock gives you ownership over a share of a company’s earnings and assets. (But no free swag, sorry.) Owning a stock gives you the right to vote for a company’s board of directors, receive dividends (if and when they are distributed) or sell the stock to someone else.
So how do they make you money?
You can make money with stocks two ways: buying low and selling high, or earning income (read: dividends) from them.When you buy a stock, you are speculating that the company will make a profit and you are hoping to participate in its success.
A profitable company’s stock price should generally increase over time (after which you might decide to sell the stock for a tidy profit).
On the other hand, you may choose to hold on to a stock long-term, especially if the company pays dividends and provides you with a steady stream of income.
