- The potential for higher than average returns if the market moves in your favour
- The potential to receive regular dividends
- The right to vote on certain company decisions (dependant on class of shares)
- By holding shares, you have the potential to share in the success of the company through Dividends or Capital Growth (See Below) the better a company does the higher the investment returns.
Dividends:
A dividend is a payment made to shareholders out of company profits. Not all profit is paid out in dividends. Some is reinvested in the company (sometimes all). It is not necessarily a bad thing for the shareholder if dividends are not received. If profits are ploughed back into the company, the company may grow and could mean an increase in the value of the shares. This is of course an advantage to the shareholder.
Capital Growth
Capital growth occurs when a rise in the share price gives you the opportunity to sell your shares at a profit. Capital growth is not certain as it depends on what happens to the share price, which can be affected by a number of factors with both technical and fundamental reasons. An example of this would be buying Tesco shares at £3.94 per share and then selling them at £4.50 per share at a 12% profit. This is also relevant if the share price were to drop by 12% then you will lose 12% of the value of your position.
Risks of Shares and Investments
- Share value is driven by the perceived value that the stock market and investors have for a stock linked to the supply and demand for it at any particular time in the market
- Company performance, both current and future, can affect the share value
- Shares are the least stable of the four asset classes. These are:
- Stocks or equities
- Fixed Income or bonds
- Money market or cash equivalents
- Real estate or other tangible assets - The value of shares can go up and down more than any other type of investment
- The higher the risk the greater the reward may be but the higher the risk the more likely it is not to be a successful investment
- Share dealing can be high risk particularly if you invest all of your money in one company. The worst case scenario is that the company is unable to pay their debts then you could lose some if not all your money that you invested
