:) | Can anyone explain where the money goes that is put into a "stock"? |
here is the question again that was asked before.
I understand that it is "demand" and blah blah blah,
but what i am asking in this question is logically thinking about this question : what happens to the money? how does it go where?
think logically about this as if it were a "game".
here is the question again from before again.

When you buy stock, someone else is selling that number of shares.
If the volume of trades is low, the price you pay may be much higher than what you see quoted. (The extra money you pay is to get the attention of reluctant sellers. Everyone has a price.)
If you buy it from me, I will save part of it in the bank. I will pay a commission to the broker. I will pay taxes on my capital gains. I will pay bills with part of it. Finally, I will use the rest of it to reinvest in stocks that I think are better at making me more money. |

It depends on who you bought the stock from. You can either buy the stock directly from the corporation (IPO, direct purchase, employee options, etc.) or from an existing shareholder (via a broker or directly). If you buy from the corporation, the money goes into their cash assets. The corporation will use that money in the best interests of the owners, usually trying to make the most possible profit to give back as dividends. At least that's their legal and ethical responsibility.
If you buy the stock from an existing shareholder, the entire amount will go into the previous owner's pocket. Time will tell whether you are better off with your new shares or whether you should have kept the cash. |

It goes, ultimately, to the party who sold the shares.
Edit: It's not rocket science; brokers buy and sell the shares on behalf of their customers. Brokers get their commissions, the buyers and sellers get the shares and/or net sell cash. |

When a company first wants to offer stock they go to an investment firm and say "Hey, we want to raise up some money to expand the company" The investment firms decides how much money they think they can get for selling this company, after time and research they find out that Company A can probably sold to the public @ $10.00 a share and 1 Million shares. So if you want to own that company at the IPO(The initial public offering) then you need to pay the price that the investment firm will sell it to you, most time they will put some money on top of the $10 in order to make some profit for doing the job. After all the shares have been sold they should have been sold, then all the money being made from selling shares, goes to the person who sol the shares. So Lets says the Company decided to keep 10% of the shares, so they still have 100,000 shares and the public has the remaining 90%. That 90% is being traded sometimes between people who dont want the shares anymore and those who do want it still. If you have any additional questions let me know. |

Some of what you pay goes to the seller, some to the stockbroker and some to the government (stamp duty) |

the thing is only about 1% of the worlds 'money' exists on paper, the rest is 'virtual money' it only exists in computers, the whole concept of money is really meaningless, there is nothing to back up "promisary notes" which is what money actually is as the gold standard- the standard that backed currency with an equivalent value in gold ended a considerable time ago, the idea used to be that you could go into the bank of england and get the same value as a banknote in gold, hence the i promist to p[ay the bearer nonsense on the front, but seeing as that does not happen anymore then their really is no money to begin with therefore your'money' just gets passed around the computer systems of the world financial markets either making or losing value, but as i said it is all meaningless anyway.
it sounds ridiculous does it not, research it its all true! |
