STOCK MARKET FOR DUMMIES 📈 How The Stock Market Works #Best Education Page #Online Earning

STOCK MARKET FOR DUMMIES 📈 How The Stock Market Works


okay so today I want to talk to you guys
about basically a very simple
explanation of how the stock market
works now I'm going to be doing this
video a little bit different than my
usual videos I actually spent a long
time trying to figure out the best way
to convey this information and I've
started recording this with all my notes
written on the board and I just didn't
feel like it was coming across the right
way so I started over completely and I
basically drew like my pictorial
representation of this and I have my
notes on my paper here I'm going to read
off this for this video anyway what my
notes are and then with this diagram I
drew up here kind of show you where each
art fits in here um so the first part of
this basically is a stock or share a
stock is a piece of the company and when
a company needs to raise money issue
shares and when they issue shares for
the first time this is called an IPO or
an initial public public offering um so
that's basically this right here you
have your you have a company and then
when they do the initial public offering
they offer it to investors okay here's
the thing with this a lot of people
don't realize this but the company only
makes money one time from this with the
initial public offering or if they
continue they offer shares again down
the road um they will make money off
that but when the stock price changes
the company isn't making or losing money
they make money one time all for this
IPO or the initial offering of any
future shares so this is where the
company does the IPO or a new offering
of shares sells or to investors and they
make their money one time and they use
that money to conduct business on the
pricing during the IPO is determined by
two key factors number one being how
much the company is estimated to be
worth and number two is the number of
shares being issued um so what happens
here is after this after they sell to
the investors the stock will continue to
trade being bought and being sold on an
exchange an example of this would be the
New York Stock Exchange
um this is all based on the perceived
value of the stock that's why this is
kind of showing here the buying in the
selling of the stock all leads towards
this perceived value of what that piece
of that company is actually worth on
perceived value is the worth that a
product or service has in the mind of
the consumer perceived value of a
company changes over time that's why the
investor ah investors continue to trade
the stock if the perceived value of the
company pretty much stayed the same you
wouldn't see people buying or selling
the stock the price would stay
relatively the same and people who
invested in it would likely just hold on
to it but because the perceived value of
that company changes based on decisions
and anything else going on with that
company the stock continues to trade on
the stock market exchange on most
investors are looking to buy a stock
when the perceived value is lower and
sell it when it is higher on others
would be a Polish investor let me just
explain to you bullish versus bearish in
case you don't know what that means um
the way that this was explained to me is
the way that a bowl attacks with its
horns in an upward direction versus the
way a bear attacks with its claw in a
downward direction a bullish investor is
like attacking like a bowl weather where
they're doing their attack in an upward
motion where is a bear attacks downwards
that's why bullish investors are making
money from rising stock prices bearish
investors are making money from falling
stock prices so that's the difference
between those two there in case you
didn't know that on now a bearish
investor on the other hand they're going
to make money from falling stock prices
and they do this by short selling the
stock on this is where they're looking
to sell borrowed shares at a higher
price and then buy them back at a lower
price short selling is very confusing
I'm going to be honest with you I've
never short sold the stock and it's kind
of a more advanced trading strategy and
I kind of keep it simple guys I don't
really get into short sell in there but
it is something to note that not
everyone is making money from rising
stock prices some people make their
money when the stock price goes down
depending on the type of investor
or okay there are two types of analysis
that investors typically use when
they're buying a stock it's either
technical stock analysis or fundamental
stock analysis technical stock analysis
is all based on charts and numbers for
the most part and you're looking for
patterns and trends on fundamental stock
analysis is all based on company
strength so somebody who's doing
fundamental analysis of the stock we'd
be looking at like profit loss summaries
third quarterly earnings different
things like that coming from the company
they're looking at the overall strength
of the company and for the most part
they're good they're going to ignore
those day-to-day swings or the week to
week swings because they're usually
buying it for the long run
whereas with technical stock analysis
it's usually done by a swing trader who
is trying to swing trade based on the
moving up and moving down of the stock
based on the volatility so people doing
technical stock analysis are generally
holding the stock for a much shorter
period of time and fundamental analysis
is when you're doing a position trade
the best you're holding it for a long
duration of time so let me talk about
dividends a lot of people don't realize
what a dividend is mature companies that
are well established pay dividends to
shareholders on this is basically like a
little bonus saying hey thank you for
investing in us we want to encourage you
to hold on to our stock so we're going
to give you a little bit of money either
quarterly or yearly usually it's no more
than quarterly on so they're going to
give you a percentage every single year
or every single whatever the duration is
a percentage of whatever that stock
value is worth so however much you have
invested they'll kick you back a
percentage based on how much money
they're making that quarter or whatever
the factor is for the most part but you
generally only see a dividend with well
established companies so if a company
just had like an IPO and they're they're
new to the scene don't expect to have a
dividend they're usually the companies
that have been around for a lot longer
um something else to note is the share
price operates completely independently
of dividends so the share price may be
down but it may still pay a higher
dividend or the same dividend of paid
last quarter so share price doesn't
affect the amount of paying out in the
dividend arm some investors buy dividend
stocks only because they're looking to
seek regular stock market income just
this is another way that some people
trade I mean everybody has their own
strategy
some people strictly buy dividend stocks
because they only want to make money
from that whatever percentage is per
quarter or per year off those stocks and
that's all they're looking for okay so
because when you buy a stock you are
owning a piece of that company this is
going to give you voting rights so
that's what this line is right here this
dashed line that goes around the
investors um you own basically your
voting rights is all based on how many
shares you hold of the company or how
much of the company you own do you have
a right to vote in company decisions um
so voting rights as share is a piece of
a company and as as part owner you have
a vote and how it is wrong voting rights
are typically equal to the number of
shares your own unless the company has
issued different classes of shares um
sometimes you'll see this with a private
company that decides to eventually go
public they may offer people who work
for the company who own private shares
to have more voting rights than people
who are buying into it publicly and this
can be to basically maintain control the
company or make it so you can't so
easily buy control of the company on
classes of shares
it says shareholders have different
levels of voting rights and this can
make the company more difficult to take
over and help them maintain control like
I said it's typical of a private company
that goes public down the road so your
shareholders collectively vote on a
board of directors as well as major
company decisions on your board of
directors is a group of individuals
elected to establish corporate
management policies and make decisions
on major company issues and that's kind
of interesting people don't realize this
and I've gotten ballots in the mail
before you I think once a year you get
those when you go through and your vote
on the board of directors and a lot of
people don't take the time to do that
and you really should because you own
part of that company even if it's a
small fraction of a fraction of a
percent you are a part owner of that
company today and you're in whatever
decision you make
whatever your vote is does count towards
something so you own a little piece of
that company you should exercise your
right to vote in company decisions um
let's see here next I've talked about a
stock transaction so this is where this
would happen in this on the on the
exchange here you're going to have a
stock transaction with a transaction
there must be a buyer and a seller in
order to buy shares someone needs to
sell them to you so you can't
necessarily I mean for the most part
with a high high volume stock with a lot
of people trading a large cap stock
there's always going to be somebody
willing to buy and always going to be
somebody willing to sell if you were
trading a small cap stock you might run
into an issue where you're trying to
sell and there's nobody there to buy or
you're trying to buy and nobody's
selling right now but for the most part
if you're trading any stocks listed on
like the New York Stock Exchange or like
a nasdaq listed stock they're so
high-volume
there will always be buyers when you're
trying to sell and sell is when you're
trying to buy um so this is kind of
where I'm talking about this tug of war
I'm sorry right in the way here this is
the tug of war concept of the stock
market like I said the perceived value
of stock changes on a minute-to-minute
or day to day basis it's in a constant
tug of war of bearish and bullish
pressure we talked about before so
anytime you're seeing this type changed
direction it's kind of like picture the
tug of war versus the bear in the bowls
where one person is winning and one
person he's losing every spot that I
circled here on this is representing for
the most part indecision this is where
there's a tug of war and whenever you
see a stock going into an uptrend or
into a downtrend it means either there's
one the type of war or the Bulls won the
tug of war so where you can see a after
this indecision period here you see the
stock going to an uptrend this would be
more bullish pressure than bearish
pressure or more people are buying the
stock as opposed to selling the stock um
if you want to think of this in terms of
like psychology this would be greed on
the human emotion of greed here when the
stock is in an uptrend that means that
it's all based off the principles of
supply and demand so when there is a
high demand for the stock
there's not as much of a supply because
there's more people buying and selling
the stock the price will go up because
that's in more there's more demand for
that alright so then you see where it
will go into a period of indecision
again that's where buyers are not
willing to pay any more for the stock
and the sellers are going to kind of go
back into that tug-of-war or the Bears
versus the Bulls here and then in this
case here where the stock goes into a
downtrend that's where there's more
bearish pressure or more selling
pressure than there is buying pressure
at this point the emotion in this trend
here would be fear um
that's because people are afraid of
losing money they're selling the stock
because it's going down there's more
people selling than buying so the market
has that overwhelming supply and when
there's too much of something in the
market the price is going to go down so
any of these periods here where our
stock is basing or consolidating those
are periods of indecision and then up
trends and down trends it's all based on
that tug-of-war principle of whoever's
in control the market at that time so
that's pretty much how that works there
and this all happens during the stock
transactions here and that happens at
the stock market exchanged and something
else I want to mention here too in case
you didn't realize this just like
anything else there's hours to the stock
market I know the New York Stock
Exchange is open 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
it's closed on holidays it's Monday
through Friday and they do have the
right to close the stock market if
there's something crazy going on so if
there was like a natural disaster or
something was happening where they
didn't want people to make quick
decisions and sell they can close the
stock market they have the right to do
that a lot of people don't realize that
um I just want to briefly mention on
volume so volume is basically how many
shares change hands each day high daily
volume is attractive because it's easier
to buy and sell and less and it's less
slippage at that point so let me explain
that to you when you're trading a
high-volume stock that makes it so for
the most part there's a buyer when
you're ready to sell and a seller when
you're looking to buy um slippage is a
difference between what somebody is
willing to pay for the stock and what
somebody
willing to sell the stock for that's
called basically the slippage is a buy
it is a bid and then there's an ask
price for the stock and the quote falls
somewhere in the middle on the higher
volume a stock trades at the less
different series between those prices
and then the lower volume of the stock
trades that there's a greater difference
between those prices so one of the
attractive things about creating a high
volume stock is you're going to have
less difference in the dollar amount or
what somebody's going to buy this dot
for and what somebody's willing to sell
it for so that's what's attractive about
trading a high cap or high volume stock
so when I'm saying hi cap that refers to
that refers to market capital or market
cap a market cap is basically the number
of outstanding shares times the price of
a single share of the stock I mean for
the most part like I said New York Stock
Exchange in Nasdaq traded stocks all
have a high market cap um that's pretty
much it guys that's like the basics on
how the stock market works I'm just
going to run through it one more time
this chart on top just cuz it's cool to
understand how this basically works so
when the company has the initial public
offering of the stocks they make one
time they make money one time off the
selling of those stocks to these
investors here um based on company
decisions the perceived value of that
stock changes over time and as such
there's more buying and selling pressure
at any given point in time if you
picture this as like a scale on one side
being buying one side being selling you
can see where they can tip the scale
more people buy on more people selling
and this will directly affect the share
price as you see down here that's where
the share price is in either a period of
indecision or an uptrend or downtrend um
as an investor you have the right to
vote on a board of directors and major
company decisions and as such those
decisions also affect the perceived
value of that stock and well-established
companies will pay off a dividend at
certain periods of time but that's
pretty much how the stock market works
and that's why shares of a stock
continue to trade people don't just hold
on to them forever so that's pretty much
all I got for this video I just wanted
to mention to it
but in my own personal stock market
trading strategy
I do have an e-book I've been working on
for the last three month that I just
finished up and I basically have been
studying the stock market for quite some
time now
and I've read dozens of different books
and guides and I've talked to different
people that have been trading for years
and what I did is I pulled all the best
information from those sources and I
packaged it up in this ebook which is
basically my own personal stock market
trading strategy my training is based on
technical stock analysis and I'm
generally doing a swing trade where I'm
holding the stock anywhere from a couple
days to maybe a week or two and then not
a long trade it's kind of a shorter
duration trade and I've actually had
pretty good luck with that consistently
they've been able to make a couple
hundred dollars a week with about one to
two hours of my time being spent looking
into stocks and doing the actual trading
itself so if you're interested in that
I'll link up to it in the description
but other than that if you guys have any
video ideas for me or anything you want
me to cover or anything you want me to
explain better drop me a comment below
and I will be sure to answer those but
thank you guys for watching
