i think here is the best anser for your question just open this link u will see all about share and mutual fund ..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutual_fund


Swamy
A share (equity or preference) is a piece of a particular company or organisation. You are the direct owner of a part of the company issuing the shares. You have the voting rights at the shareholder's meet, corresponding to the proportion of the shares held by you.

A mututal fund is a fund mobilised by a group of investors to pick up shares of one or more companies. Through an investment manager and asset management companies, the mututal fund announces its intention of investing in some specified sectors or across a broad spectrum of stocks and shares and invites investors to subscribe to the mutual fund. The fund in turn subscribes to the IPO (Initial Public Offering) or buys the shares from the secondary market. You are thus the direct owner of some units in a mutual fund and through that an indirect owner of a basket of shares.

Mutual funds are either growth oriented or yield oriented, open ended or close ended, sector specific or broad based and so on.

To know more about the fundmentals of investment, read some good books or read some articles. Internet is a good place to acquire a basic knowledge

mutual funds investing their portfolio in company shares


Mahesh S
Shares can be shared by all whereas mutual fund is all between mutuals......


Shyon
Simple
Shares
Example: A company having paid up capital of Rs.100000 has 10 shares of Rs10000
So if you have 1Share than you are 10% holder of company .If company is public listed company than than you can always transfer your holding at current market price.
Mutual Funds
It is a Collective Investment scheme ( not strictly Collective investment scheme ) ,generally in form of Trust , where a trust having money of its investors invests in combination of securities (i.e.,Portfolio) on behalf of investors . So if you are unit holder in some Mutual fund than you participate in gains that arise from suffling of investments

Shares more risky than the mutual funds. But in mutual funds risk is also diversified and earns high rate of return

Dude ,
Share is nothing having invested in some co UR the part holder of that company , but when a collective people come forward to invest in the stock market having the same intentions which is done by professional people then its know as mutual fund .
