Stocks are an ownership "share" of an individual company. The company sells stock to raise capital for a variety of corporate uses including expansion, & research. Some companies don't have stock. They are referred to as privately held companies. The value of a stock rises or falls as the business climate for that firm varies. ( among several other reasons, including interest rates, government regulation, & public perception of the firm) See yahoofinance.com for more detailed info on any individual stock or company. Good Luck!!
