看完之后,对他们的区别一头雾水……
请看辨析:
share,特指单独的一股;
stock,可以是单独的一股,也可以是股份的统称;
equity,实际指股东拥有的权益(股权或资产净值)
我们可以说:
I bought 300 shares of kweichow moutai
yesterday.
我昨天买了300股的贵州茅台。
一般不说:
I bought 300 stocks of kweichow moutai
yesterday.
但可以说:
I bought stocks of kweichow moutai yesterday.
甚至:I bought 300 shares of stock of Kweichow moutai
yesterday.
I bought stocks of 5 companies listed on small
and
medium
enterprise
board
yesterday.
进一步地,关于equity,请看下面这一段话:
The most general meaning of equity is ownership
in a business. Unlike stock and share, equity applies to
non-corporate business structures as well. Anyone with a financial
stake in a company, whether a sole proprietorship, partnership or
corporation, owns equity. In accounting, the amount of equity
owners have is based on the difference between business assets and
liabilities. If the company holds $500,000 in assets and has
$300,000 in liabilities, for instance, owners' equity equals
$200,000.
关于share和stock,可以看下面这段话,加深理解:
A share is a single unit of stock. Someone
holding shares of stock in a business has a fractional ownership of
the company. If a company has issued 100,000 shares of stock, and a
shareholder has 1,000 shares, he owns one percent of the business.
另外:
shareholder=stockholder持股人,但≠stakeholder利益相关者
equity transfer=share transfer股权转让;
common stock=common
shares普通股,preferred stocks= preferred
shares优先股;
ROE(Rate of Return on Common Stockholders’
Equity)净资产收益率,股东权益报酬率;
