What are stocks?
A stock is a share in the ownership of a company.
Shares are traded on a stock exchange, where they are priced in real time through active bidding between buyers and sellers.
The New York Stock Exchange traces its origins to an agreement signed by 24 stockbrokers on 17 May 1792.
Goldman Sachs, Disney and Coca-Cola trade on the New York Stock Exchange, and Apple, Amazon and Tesla on the Nasdaq.
Like any investment, a stock’s value can fall as well as rise.
The real risks
When you invest in a stock, you could lose all of your money, in some cases more than you invested.
Ontario Securities Commission
If a company goes bankrupt and is liquidated, common shareholders get paid last.
Ontario Securities Commission
Large company stocks as a group have lost money on average about one out of every three years, and sometimes the losses have been quite dramatic.
US SEC
ETTFOS is not an investment advisory service or a broker-dealer, and it does not tell anyone what to buy or sell.
