A quick definition of corporate stock:

Corporate stock is a type of ownership in a company. When a company wants to raise money, it can sell shares of stock to people who want to invest. Each share of stock represents a small piece of ownership in the company. Stockholders can vote on important decisions and may receive a portion of the company's profits as dividends. There are different types of stock, such as common stock and preferred stock, each with their own benefits and risks.

A more thorough explanation:

Corporate stock refers to an equity security issued by a corporation. It represents ownership in the company and grants the holder the right to participate in the company's management and share in its profits.

For example, if you own 100 shares of Apple stock, you have a proportional part of Apple's capital and can vote on important company decisions. You are also entitled to a share of Apple's profits in the form of dividends.

There are different types of corporate stock, such as common stock and preferred stock. Common stock gives the holder voting rights and a share in the company's assets upon liquidation, while preferred stock gives the holder a preferential claim to dividends and assets but usually no voting rights.

It's important to note that stock can be volatile and subject to fluctuations in price. Some stocks may be considered "hot" or "glamour" stocks due to their potential for high growth or earnings, while others may be considered "inactive" or "yo-yo" stocks due to low trading volume or rapid price changes.

Bio Chemistry is odd, some ppl just cannot absorb certain nutrients/vits. Like some calcium deficient ppl actually loose more calcium when they increase intake.
