Definition of equities

An instrument that signifies an ownership position, or equity, in a corporation, and represents a claim on its proportionate share in the corporation's assets and profits. A person holding such an ownership in the company does not enjoy the highest claim on the company's earnings. Instead, an equity holder's claim is subordinated to creditor's claims, and the equity holder will only enjoy distributions from earnings after these higher priority claims are satisfied. also called equities or equity securities or corporate stock.

Equity is a form of asset that is yours. Current House Value minus Loan = Equity.

Equity is a share of partnership in a company. It is derived by taking all of the assets, minus the liabilities, it gives you the net equity. That is not what the shares trade at, so do not confuse it to get you to the current price of the stock, since it leads you to book value.

To start learning, first you need training and time to observe the markets and stocks. You will have to be very disciplined to take the time to learn and to apply what you have learned, and the best way is with virtual money (like monopoly money). This will save you from loosing real money by taking too much risks and not controlling your emotions. Your own emotions are probably what will make it the most difficult for you to behave rationally.

See the sites listed below for information and resources. To practice, there is a free site

where you will be issued some starting money and will place your own buy and sell orders over the internet. Each day, you will see your virtual portfolio account value increase and decrease. In their Research section, you will even find some free training tips to get you started!

So, even if you have taken a trading courses or read a few books about online trading, be careful and trade virtually for a few months. For each trade you make, always keep a log of why you bought and how you will exit that trade. When you close each trading position, review the record for that trade and evaluate your performance. After that, have a look at your trading record and decide then if you are ready to invest with real money.

With time and techniques, you may find you are able to make good profits, but take your time .

Answer 8

Equity is the name given to the set of legal principles, in countries following the English common law tradition (see English law), which supplement strict rules of law where their application would operate harshly, so as to achieve what is sometimes referred to as "natural justice." It is often confusingly contrasted with "law," which in this context refers to "statutory law" (the laws enacted by Parliament), and "common law" (the principles established by judges when they decide cases).

In finance a share is a unit of account for various financial instruments including stocks, mutual funds, limited partnerships, and REIT's. In British English, the usage of the word share alone to refer solely to stocks is so common that it almost replaces the word stock itself.

A share is one of a finite number of equal portions in the capital of a company, entitling the owner to a proportion of distributed, non-reinvested profits known as dividends and to a portion of the value of the company in case of liquidation. Shares can be voting or non-voting, meaning they either do or do not carry the right to vote on the board of directors and corporate policy. Whether this right exists often affects the value of the share..
