an old Priestess asked:


If I understand it correctly, a company issues stock and
sells it to raise capitol. Once they have sold the stock to
the public, and been paid for it, why should any changes
to the price of the stock matter to them anymore ?

In other words, how could it harm a company if people
sell off the stock and the value of it declines a lot ?

El Diablo asked:


What are the names of the poeple who contribute the most money in the whole stock market? There has got to be a limited number of individual people that own X percent of stock in the ENTIRE market…who are these people and how much percent of the market do they own? I ask this because someone told me that Bush along with 3 other people own the majority/most percentage of the enitre stock market. Is it true or is this person completely crazy…it seems pretty possible to me but that is why i ask on yahoo.

iBored asked:


I’ve heard a lot about the stock market recently but I don’t know much about it. What is it? Also, I’ve heard that people have gotten rich off of it, how did they get rich?
