No -- the last price is the price of the last trade of the day. For NYSE listed stocks, this is usually the last trade on the Pacific Exchange (since the Pacific exchange closes after the NYSE and other regional exchanges).
The opening price is the price of the first trade the nexxt morning. |

There is after hours trading and pre-market trading the next morning. And there are also buy and sell orders placed while the market is closed, not executed in after or pre market trading, that are waiting to be executed when the market opens. All of this has to reconciled by the market makers or specialists in order to set an opening price. |

It depends on which market you are talking about.Let's talk about the 2 main US stock markets. The NYSE and NASDAQ.
Firstly, even though both markets stop trading at 5:30 pm, the books stay open for "orders" (trades) 24/7. With this said: the bid/ask ratio can move anywhere before the next days open. If there is more demand for buyers the next days open will reflect that.the same situation for more sellers.Its important to note that there are many market makers on the NAS, and just one Specialist per security on the NYSE.This gives the NAS a bit more volatility than the NYSE and makes a nice place for day traders.Daily futures prices are never a guarantee of the actual future price of a security that day as anything can happen that is unforeseen. the only thing daily futures prices are good for is to measure volatility at the open of the day. |

Think about it, you own shares, go to bed and the company strikes oil or whatever would you want to sell your shares for the same money in the morning. Marketmakers have the same attitude so the answer is no. Same applies selling too. |

Normally yes but necessarily as the price is chosen by the market makers to match the volume of sellers to the volume of buyers. |

Not necessarily, highly active stocks will continue to trade even after the bell, they will also begin to trade early in the morning before the bell. |
