stock exchange

Read a random definition: bishop

A quick definition of stock exchange:

A stock exchange is a place where people buy and sell stocks, which are like little pieces of ownership in a company. When you buy a stock, you become a shareholder, which means you own a small part of that company. The stock exchange keeps track of who owns what stocks and helps people buy and sell them. There are different important dates related to stocks, like the date you become a shareholder, the date you get paid dividends (which is like a little bonus for owning the stock), and the date you have to pay for the stocks you buy.

A more thorough explanation:

A stock exchange is a place where people can buy and sell stocks, which are shares of ownership in a company. It's like a marketplace for stocks.

  • When you buy a share of stock in a company, you become a part owner of that company.
  • If you want to sell your stock, you can do so on a stock exchange.
  • The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is one of the most well-known stock exchanges in the world.

These examples illustrate how a stock exchange works and how people can use it to invest in companies and make money.

@NemoPropheta: mine was on a chill team so i had a good time, but apple works like a bunch of little companies that report to the same ppl so its a little isolating if you're not in the same office/don't go out much. i didn't take RO to intern again
14:32
i applied cold and happened to team match well from something i did on a prior internship
@Sex-Drive: we have entirely different living standards if you think 60k is "hardly anything to live off of:"
i make around that in a hcol area and feel like im balling out while saving over 20% of my income
@Sex-Drive: Seconding what Windy's saying. I live in a LCOL and I'm fully able to support myself and my family on my paycheck alone. $60k in a HCOL while single was living check to check.

What did they even post?
probably calling me an anti-hispanic slur
if I want to transfer to nyu is it better to go to washu or cardozo
(also why does nyu accept so many transfers from brooklyn lmao, what other t125 will let you transfer that high)
15:07
transferring is grades dependent so "better" is a little weird to define - a lot of ppl don't want to give up schollys/networks for ranking purposes. that being said im going to dozo and hoping for a nyu transfer lol
15:08
i think they take a lot from brooklyn just by the nature of being a nyc school. 3 out of 15 transfers out of cardozo went to nyu last year which is technically a good sign but you'd consider that the rate of ppl at washu wanting to move to nyc and pay sticker after a year is probably lower than the rate of ppl at nyc schools who want to
15:09
i dont really know how important it is to be median vs 75th of transfer gpa but id imagine keeping a B+/A- average is pretty hard in 1L and easier said than done
