Shares are the equal parts that the value of a company is divided into. If you own shares in a company you are entitled to a percentage of any profit it makes. The more shares you have, the greater the share of the profit. Investment bankers are paid to buy and sell shares for you in order to make you more money. So is it always a good idea to buy shares? What might affect whether you buy shares in a company or not?
