Detailed explanation-1: -A shareholder is any person, company, or institution that owns shares in a company’s stock. A company shareholder can hold as little as one share. Shareholders are subject to capital gains (or losses) and/or dividend payments as residual claimants on a firm’s profits.
Detailed explanation-2: -To delve into the underlying meaning of the terms, “stockholder” technically means the holder of stock, which can be construed as inventory, rather than shares. Conversely, “shareholder” means the holder of a share, which can only mean an equity share in a business.
Detailed explanation-3: -A shareholder can be an individual, company, or institution that owns at least one share of a company and therefore has a financial interest in its profitability. A shareholder can also be known as a stockholder.
Detailed explanation-4: -A shareholder is a person or institution that has invested money in a corporation in exchange for a “share” of the ownership. That ownership is represented by common or preferred shares issued by the company and held (i.e., owned) by the shareholder.
Detailed explanation-5: -A shareholder can be a person, institution, or another company. Shareholders are the owners of a company. If the company does well, the shareholders benefit through appreciation in the value of their shares. However, if the company incurs losses, the shareholders can also be at a loss due to fall in stock prices.
