How do I start investing in shares or stocks? What is the minimum requirement?
That's helpful. Can you explain the difference between a stock and a share?
Sure! The terms "stock" and "share" are often used interchangeably, but technically a stock refers to the ownership of a portion of a corporation, while a share is one unit of ownership in that corporation. So when people say they are "buying stocks," they are actually buying shares in companies.
