Shares are issued by the company that represents ownership of the company based on how many shares you have and what class of shares are they. You buy the shares through common exchanges where the shares are listed. For example, Hang Seng for Hong Kong companies, NASDAQ for American technology companies, etc. Investing in shares can be advantagous if the share price goes up, and when the company issues dividends. But there are risks involved, and you might lose money if you don't buy the right shares or you don't buy it at the right time.
