Shares represent ownership in a company, giving shareholders a claim on part of its assets and profits. They can provide voting rights, dividends, and potential profit from price appreciation in stock markets.
A CFD (Contract for Difference) is a financial instrument for online stock trading, allowing traders to speculate on price fluctuations without owning the underlying securities. Traders open "Buy" or "Sell" positions based on market trends, as prices constantly change.
Shares represent partial company ownership, categorized into ordinary and preferred types. Ordinary shares offer voting rights and dividends, while preferred shares prioritize dividends and asset distribution during bankruptcy, typically without voting power. Both allow investors to benefit from company performance.
Shares serve as a tool for raising company capital, funding production or restocking working capital. They enhance corporate reputation, boosting transparency and attracting investors. To be traded on the stock exchange, a company's securities must first be listed.
To list its securities on a stock exchange, a company must follow specific procedures to ensure investor protection. Stock exchanges aim to trade only strong issuers, requiring companies to meet standards like share capital size, profitability, and issue size through rigorous checks.
Each issued share has a nominal value, shown on physical certificates, calculated by dividing a company's authorized capital by the number of shares. However, this doesn't reflect market value. After listing, the emission value is set, and market price varies based on corporate performance and investor interest.
Stock trading starts by finding a broker. In developed countries, equity investments are accessible to everyone, used for saving and growing wealth. Some invest in stable, dividend-paying companies, while others speculate by buying undervalued stocks to sell at higher prices, supporting the national economy.

The principal difference between CFD trading and share trading is that you do not own the underlying asset i.e the physical share. As stated, CFD stands for “contract for difference” and with a CFD you never actually take ownership of the asset or instrument you are trading but you can still take benefit if the stock market moves in your favour or make a loss if the market moves in the other direction.
