How Stocks Work

Stocks are fractional legal equity shares of a public corporation, representing a proportional claim on the enterprise's residual capital assets and quarterly net profit earnings.

Imagine a giant sandbox where a group builds cool toys. Instead of one person buying everything, everyone buys little sandbox tickets. When the toy sales grow, each sandbox ticket can be sold to other students for more candy!
