What is the difference between stocks and bonds?
Another commonly asked question about the stock market is the difference between stocks and bonds.
When you buy stocks, you own a part of a company. You can earn dividends and sell your shares for a profit. Bonds, on the other hand, are like loans to a company or government. They promise to pay you back with interest.
Stocks vs bonds: Stocks offer partial ownership of a publicly listed company and may involve a higher element of risk. Bonds provide regular income and a comparatively lower risk but offer no ownership opportunity.
