This course was designed with the goal of preparing you
to decide the best time to buy, sell or stand aside an action, using only
a few resources provided by graphical analysis and a few complementary
tools.
But, before you start the course, you will need to learn
what it is or what an action represents, and some peculiarities about them,
because after all they are the main object of this course.
Actions: Are equity securities issued by corporations, which represent the smallest fraction of the shares issuer. They might be dematerialized or represented by certificates.
The equity investor is a co -owner of a corporation, which is a shareholder participating in their results. The shares are convertible into money any time by trading on exchanges or OTC.
Example: Suppose you and your friends wish to make an investment to create a website targeted to financially denominate Aplicar.com and by that you wish to start a business.
The value of the investment to be made will be the capital of the company.
But as each of you (you and your friends) want to invest different amounts, you need to decide to divide the capital for a given number units alike. Thus, each investor will have a certain number of units, representing proportion of their investment.
Assuming that the initial investment is R $ 100,000.00 divided into 100 equal parts, we can say, then, that each one of the 100 shares of this company is worth $ 1,000.00, and the capital of the company is represented by 100* shares in the amount of $ 1,000.00 each. Furthermore, assuming that the future actions of this company are traded on the stock market in search of new partners and resources cheaper than resort to the banking system in general, the founding partners decided to split the capital of the company into shares of common and preferred type of same value.
Thus, each common share represents one preferred share and the company's share capital is represented by 50 shares, and 50 shares are preferred.
Ordinary shares give their holders to a share in profits of the company and give the shareholder entitled to vote at general meetings, thus conferring the right to send to the company.
The preferred shares grant the shareholder the priority in receiving dividends (usually as a percentage over higher than those paid for common shares) and the repayment of capital in the event of dissolution of the company.
