Morgan Wealth Management logo.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>What is a Stock?</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>What is a Stock? A stock represents ownership in a company. Stocks can also be known as equities.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>Much of the narrator's dialogue appears as written text on a napkin.</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>When you buy stock—or shares—in a company, you become a shareholder. Because a stock is a piece of ownership in the issuing company, as a shareholder, you are a partial owner.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>Drawings show a puzzle-piece-shaped portion of a company's headquarters transferring to a shareholder, in the form of a stock. The shareholder displays her stock certificate, labeled &quot;Piece of Ownership.&quot;</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>Investing in stocks can provide a number of potential benefits. While stocks may provide growth through price appreciation, they also can carry more risk than other types of investments.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>A drawing appears of a soaring airplane.</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>They may offer the chance to earn income through dividends, which are periodic cash payments to shareholders. However, not all stocks pay dividends.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>An infographic shows a pie chart, a majority of it in dollars, in front of a calendar.</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>Stocks can provide diversification when held in a portfolio that includes other types of investments.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>A pie chart shows a diverse asset allocation.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>Where to buy.</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>There are two places you can buy stocks: the primary market and the secondary market. The primary market is made up of initial public offerings, or IPOs. An IPO is when a company first offers shares to the public.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>A bullhorn appears labeled &quot;IPO.&quot;</p> <h2>Narrator:</h2> <p>The secondary market is made up of many different stock exchanges around the world, where buyers and sellers trade shares with one another.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>A world globe appears with text reading:</p> <ul> <li>New York Stock Exchange (NYSE);</li> <li>Nasdaq;</li> <li>(and) London Stock Exchange.</li> </ul> <h2>Note:</h2> <p>Small print text appears</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>Powered by Napkin Finance.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>J.P. Morgan Wealth Management logo.</p> <h2>Note:</h2> <p>Legal disclosures appear.</p> <h2>On Screen:</h2> <p>Investing involves market risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no guarantee that investment objectives will be achieved.</p> <p>Asset allocation/diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against a loss.</p> <p>Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.</p> <p>The price of equity securities may rise or fall due to the changes in the broad market or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably.&nbsp; Equity securities are subject to ‘stock market risk’ meaning that stock prices in general may decline over short or extended periods of time.</p> <p>In general, the bond market is volatile and bond prices rise when interest rates fall and vice versa. Longer term securities are more prone to price fluctuation than shorter term securities. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to substantial gain or loss. Dependable income is subject to the credit risk of the issuer of the bond. If an issuer defaults no future income payments will be made.</p> <p>This video and its content have been developed for J.P.
