A share refers to a unit of ownership in a company or corporation. When an individual purchases a share, they become a shareholder and have certain rights and privileges within the company. Shareholders typically have the right to vote on important company decisions, receive dividends if the company is profitable, and have the potential to earn a return on their investment if the share price increases. Shares can be bought and sold on stock exchanges, allowing investors to trade their ownership in a company. The value of a share is determined by various factors, including the company’s financial performance, market conditions, and investor sentiment. Overall, shares provide individuals with the opportunity to invest in companies and potentially benefit from their success.
