A stock is a legally binding symbol of ownership in
a company. When you purchase a stock, you actually become
the owner of a part of a company - a share holder. Since
one company can release a lot of stocks, the ownership
is typically spread over hundreds or thousands or owners.
Selling shares in a company is a way for that company
to bring cash to the company.
