  3. Friday evening

    Results and trophies

    The week is settled. The best players earn trophies for the season, and the next round starts on Monday.

Lesson 1

What is a stock?

  1. A share in a company

    A stock is a small piece of ownership in a business. If you hold one Apple share, you own a tiny part of Apple, including its factories, brands and profits.

  2. Why do companies issue stock?

    To raise money without taking out a loan. The company sells shares to many people and uses the money to grow, for example with new products or new markets. In return, a piece of the company now belongs to these investors.

  3. What's in it for you?

    Two things: the share price can rise if the company becomes more valuable (you could sell for more). And some companies pay out part of their profit to shareholders as a dividend.

  4. In Kumpano

    Here you pick five stocks every week, like a team. The better they do during the week, the higher you climb in your league. No real money is involved, but the prices are real.

Interest in stocks is growing, but getting started is still hard for many. A brokerage account requires your own money, and learning tools are mostly used alone. Kumpano combines a fixed weekly rhythm with friendly competition.
