difference between stock and share

Answer Posted / chintan l. pasad

The two terms are used synonymously today although there is a
very slight difference that exists between the two.....stock
refers to the total ownership in terms of the aggregate
ownership in terms of the whole portfolio of shares held by a
person.....share refers to the holding of shares in a
particular company.....effectively.....

Stocks = Shares of the first company + Shares of the second
company + Shares of the third company + ..... + Shares of the
nth company
