Stock Trading

Stock trading refers to the buying and selling of shares in publicly traded companies. This process occurs on stock exchanges, where investors can acquire ownership stakes in these companies through the purchase of stocks or shares. Stock trading can be done using various strategies, including day trading, swing trading, and long-term investing, depending on the trader's goals and market outlook. The primary objective is to profit from the fluctuations in stock prices over time, either by acquiring stocks at a lower price and selling them at a higher price or by short-selling stocks to benefit from price declines. Trading can be conducted through brokerage accounts, and it often involves analysis of market trends, company performance, and economic indicators.
