Shares
How do shares in a company work?
When people buy shares in a company, depending on how many they own, say for example there are 100 shareholders, does that mean each shareholder owns 1% each and when they cash in their shares, they get 1% of the current profits?
The short answer is probably no.
Let’s assume your example is a publicly traded company. The shareholders do not have a say on distribution of profits. Only the board of directors can declare a dividend, which may or may not be from profits (it sounds silly, but a company could declare a dividend even if they didn’t make any money – it’s called a return of capital and therefore would not be taxed).
Assuming it’s still publicly traded, the price you get when you sell your shares is dependent on how much the buyer is willing to pay for them. If the company is doing well, and potential investors think prospects look good in the future, you might well get a higher price than if your company is like Citigroup or many of the other financials (they’ve taken a beating this year due to the freeze-up in the credit markets, e.g., sub-prime loans).
If the company is privately held (not publicly traded), your ability to sell shares are likely to be dependent on the provisions of the company’s buy/sell agreement (in an effort to keep the stock within a family or people known to the other shareholders). This agreement will usually dictate how to determine the selling price of the share(s) you wish to sell.
Likewise, some shares of the stock may have an assigned value that is different than others (e.g., a majority holder who is active in the management of the company) may have superior voting rights than, say, a midlevel manager or a child of an active owner.

Fair Shares for All: A Memoir of Family and Food $4.99 In this beautifully written, vividly rendered memoir, John Haney, Gourmet magazineÂ’s copy chief, describes his familyÂ’s day-to-day struggles, from the twilight of Queen VictoriaÂ’s reign to the dawn of the third millennium, in LondonÂ’s least affluent working-class enclaves and suburbs, including a place called the Isle of Dogs – and reflects on how his familyÂ’s affection for the past and the food they loved kept them together. In crossing the Atlantic – and with it the class barrier – John is left with deep feelings of displacement and nostalgia for his Cockney roots. As he eats in some of New York CityÂ’s most expensive restaurants, he tries (and fails) to reconcile his new appetites with the indelible tastes of his youth – and the long-ago life that has continued to, and always will, define him. Peopled with unforgettable characters who find in even the greasiest kitchens the sustenance to see them through lifeÂ’s hardships, Fair Shares for All is a remarkable memoir of resolve and resilience, food and family. |

Dear Mrs. Kennedy: The World Shares Its Grief, Letters November 1963 $3.99 In the weeks and months following the assassination of her husband, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy received more than one million letters. The impact of President KennedyÂ’s death was so immense that people from every station in life wrote to her, sharing their feelings of sympathy, sorrow, and hope. She received letters from political luminaries such as Winston Churchill, Martin Luther King Jr., and Charles De Gaulle. Hollywood stars like Lauren Bacall, Vivian Leigh, and Gene Kelly voiced their sympathy, as did foreign dignitaries including Queen Elizabeth II, the King and Queen of Greece, and the Prince of Monaco. Distinguished members of the arts and society – Ezra Pound, Noel Coward, Babe Paley, Langston Hughes, Oleg Cassini, Josephine Baker – offered their heartfelt condolences. And children, with the most heartbreaking sincerity, reached out to the First Lady to comfort her in her time of grief. More than just a compendium of letters, Dear Mrs. Kennedy uses these many voices to tell the unforgettable story of those fateful four days in November, when the world was struck with shock and sadness. It vividly captures the months that followed, as a nation – and a family – attempted to rebuild. Filled with emotion, patriotism, and insight, the letters are a poignant time capsule of one of the seminal events of the twentieth century. Dear Mrs. Kennedy offers a diverse portrait not only of the aftermath of the assassination, but of the Kennedy mystique that continues to captivate the world. |
