Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Shareholder"

Shareholder is exactly what it sounds like. You own shares in a particular company. In order to be a Shareholder, you have to have at least one share. Some people used to give out certificates to Shareholders. Let's say Disney, for example, they wanted their kids to have a share of Disney and Disney used to have the characters on the Shareholder Certificate. So, Disney used to have a lot of one-lot Shareholders where they buy one share of Disney. They'd order out their certificate and they'd give it to their kids. Right, put it on the wall. But, the most important thing to understand is that being a Shareholder means you're an owner of a business. Now, if you own more than 50 percent of that, logically, you're considered to be the majority Shareholder. If you own less than 50 percent, you're considered to be a minority Shareholder. Back to a previous definition, depending on the class of securities you own, you could be a minority Shareholder, but with majority vote. Being a Shareholder is an important part of the economy, important part of the world, and really a big thing about wealth creation. Owning shares is important in the capitalist society is part of how we finance businesses. Years ago, when railroads were starting to issue a lot of shares to Shareholders to raise capital to build those very expensive railroads. They've done this recently, over the last 10 years, Elon Musk has been issuing shares and raising money from private investors in SpaceX with the hope that they'll go public someday. Today's word is Shareholder, an important part of the U.S. economy, the global economy and you're probably a Shareholder in something you don't even know about today in your 401k, your IRA. Shareholders are an important part and the owners of corporate America.

Definition - Also referred to as a stockholder, is a person, company, or institution that owns at least one share of a company’s stock, which is known as equity. Because shareholders are essentially owners in a company, they reap the benefits of a business’ success. These rewards come in the form of increased stock valuations, or as financial profits distributed as dividends. Conversely, when a company loses money, the share price invariably drops, which can cause shareholders to lose money, or suffer declines in their portfolios’ values. A single shareholder who owns and controls more than 50% of a company's outstanding shares is known as a majority shareholder, while those who hold less than 50% of a company’s stock are classified as minority shareholders.

In today's world, knowledge is powerful and I'm here to share my 30+ years of Wall Street experience with you. Wall Street can definitely be intimidating for a lot of people, so I'm super excited to announce our launching of "Wall Street Words."

Whether you are an entrepreneur just starting your Business, or are a seasoned Business owner, like myself, Wall Street Words with Todd Ault will be surely become your new favorite channel.

I've had a lot of personal success when investing or trading stock and I want to share these Wall Street terms to help educate you, the viewer when it comes to the NYSE aka the New York Stock Exchange. My goal is to provide you with new information and real world examples of trading and market terms, phrases, forms needed by the SEC, so you can have the ability to make a more educated choice before you hit "The Street."

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Stock Symbol"

Definition - A stock symbol is a unique series of letters assigned to a security for trading purposes. New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and American Stock Exchange (AMEX) listed stocks have three characters or less. Nasdaq-listed securities have four or five characters. Symbols are just a shorthand way of describing a company's stock, so there is no significant difference between those that have three letters and those that have four or five. If the company has more than one class of shares trading in the market, then it will have the class added to its suffix. If it is a preferred stock, the letters ""PR"" and the letter denoting the class will typically be added. Different sources quote preferred shares in slightly different ways. For example, Bank of America common shares trade with the stock symbol BAC.

Some stock symbols indicate whether the shares of a company have voting rights, especially if the company has more than one class of shares trading in the market. For example, Alphabet Inc. (formerly Google) has two classes of shares trading on the Nasdaq with stock symbols GOOG and GOOGL. Common shareholders of GOOG have no voting rights since GOOG shares are Class C shares, while GOOGL shares are Class A shares and have one vote each. For example, Berkshire Hathaway has two class of shares trading on the NYSE, Class A and Class B. Class A shares are listed with stock symbol BRK.A, and Class B shares, which have lower voting rights than Class A trade with the symbol BRK.B."

A – Class A shares, e.g BRK.A
B – Class B shares, e.g. BRK.B
C – Issuer Qualification Exception – Company does not meet all the exchange’s listing requirements but can remain listed on the exchange for a short time period.
D – New issue of existing stock
E – Delinquent or missed one or more SEC required filings (may also be denoted by .LF)
F – Foreign issue
G – First convertible bond
H – Second convertible bond
I – Third convertible bond
J – Voting share
K – Non-voting share
L – Miscellaneous, e.g. foreign preferred, third class of warrants, preferred when-issued, fifth class preferred shares, etc.
M – Fourth class preferred shares
N – Third class preferred shares
O – Second class preferred shares
P – First class preferred shares
Q – In bankruptcy proceedings
R – Rights
S – Shares of beneficial interest
T – With warrants or with rights
U – Units
V – When-issued and when-distributed. These shares are about to go through a corporate action plan that has already been announced, such as a stock split.
W – Warrants
X – Mutual Funds
Y – American Depository Receipt (ADR)
Z – Miscellaneous situations (same as the letter L)
OB – over-the-counter bulletin board
PK – Pink sheets stock
SC – Nasdaq SmallCap
NM – Nasdaq National Market

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "short squeeze"

Definition - A short squeeze occurs when a stock or other asset jumps sharply higher, forcing traders who had bet that its price would fall to buy it in order to forestall even greater losses. Their scramble to buy only adds to the upward pressure on the stock's price.

#wallstreet #stockmarket

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Bid"

"Bid," refers to "Bid and Offer" or "Bid in the Asking Price." A Bid is where someone's willing to buy a particular security. '"Bid" for that securities', 'I'll buy a thousand shares at $100.00', that's the Bid price. Let's say the "Offer" price or "Ask" is a $101.00 and 'I'll sell you a 1,000 shares at that price.' This is referred to in a two-way quotation market that is the "Stock Exchange." This is an important component of the capital markets and the transparency of the Bid and the Ask are critical when it comes to establishing a fluid market for a security. Hey, on a side note, I'm going to tell you about Bid or 'Hit the Bid" when I was running a hedge fund and I'd have a trader sell for me, I'd tell him to 'hit that Bid' and that Bid would be something like this, "Hey, self, 100,000 shares of a burgers." What's that mean, that's McDonald's. Today's word is "Bid."

Definition - The term bid stipulates the price the potential buyer is willing to pay, as well as the quantity he or she will purchase, for that proposed price. A bid also refers to the price at which a market maker is willing to buy a security. But unlike retail buyers, market makers must also display an ask price.

"When completing a purchase at the bid price, both the bid and the ask may rise to significantly higher levels for subsequent transactions, if the seller perceives a strong demand. A bid is an offer made by an investor, trader, or dealer in an effort to buy a security, commodity, or currency.
The spread between the bid and the ask is a reliable indicator of supply and demand, for the financial instrument in question. Market makers, often referred to as specialists, are vital to the efficiency and liquidity of the marketplace."

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words!

Today's word is "Shark Watcher" and I don't mean being out in the ocean and looking for sharks. If you're a "Shark" or a takeover guy, an activist firm, you try to buy companies, buy them early, get a position before Wall Street knows about it. A Shark Watching firm pays attention to what's happening with 13-D's (Form 13-D) filings (with the SEC.) the way potential takeovers are shaping up. Rumors and innuendoes, these Shark Watchers try to find out what's happening so maybe they can be part of the proxy solicitation or even make a profit when an arbitrager or someone is trying to takeover a company. Shark Watcher is a firm that pays attention to whatever takeover artists are doing, like T. Boone Pickens, before he passed away, Ron Perlman, Carl Icahn and many others. Today's word is "Shark Watcher."

As a side note, I sometimes have become a Shark Watcher. I have bought companies, bought into deals when I see someone following a 13-D while they are attempting to take something over, I get on their coattails. Totally legal because when they follow 13-D, as you know, in a prior Wall Street Word, the public has to be notified. Today's word is "Shark Watcher."

Definition - An individual or company that monitors market rumors and trading activity in an effort to identify takeover attempts. A shark watcher specializes in the early detection of hostile takeovers. The shark watcher monitor's aspects of a firm's trading such as who is accumulating shares and the quantity accumulated. In addition, a shark watcher's primary business is usually the solicitation of proxies for client corporations.

Sesame Brokerage is a publicly traded company. They have a lot of valuable assets. However, their stock price has recently been depressed due to macro trends sweeping the industry. They are concerned about being a takeover target. Sesame Brokerage hires Bert and Ernie's Shark Watchers Inc. to monitor trading activiy of Sesame Brokerage's shares on the open market. Shark Watchers Inc. will track firms that acquire shares of Sesame Brokerage and alert Sesame Brokerage to any possible takeover threats.

In today's world, knowledge is powerful and I'm here to share my 30+ years of Wall Street experience with you. Wall Street can definitely be intimidating for a lot of people, so I'm super excited to announce our launching of "Wall Street Words."

#sharkwatcher #wallstreet #stockmarket #tradingstock

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Ask". The asking price, the amount or dollar amount you're willing to sell it at.

The seller offers the price at the "asking price." There's a Bid price on what someone's willing to buy it at. The Ask is always higher than the Bid. One of the great things about the Bid and Ask in the transparent system on Level 2 if you're trading stocks, is you're able to see the price, the Ask, you can buy it at and the depth of the market. Today's word is "Ask", similar to "Bid," the seller is asking for this price.

Definition - The ask is the price a seller is willing to accept for a security, which is often referred to as the offer price. Along with the price, the ask quote might also stipulate the amount of the security available to be sold at the stated price. The bid is the price a buyer is willing to pay for a security, and the ask will always be higher than the bid.

An offer price is another term for ask price. A bid price is always lower than the ask price. The difference between a bid price and ask price is called the spread. Different markets have different spread conventions, which reflect transaction costs, the value of a single point, and liquidity.

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "White Elephant"

White Elephant? Have you ever seen a white elephant? Did you ever want to own one? White elephants are stocks that appear to have no upside. Where people don't really want to own them because they can't figure out how they're ever going to make any money at them. These general white elephants trade, their public, but maybe they have a deteriorating business model. This happened to a lot of steel stocks during the 70's and 80's when steel was getting beaten up by Japan and foreign competition. White elephant stocks are always around, and sometimes guys like me who buy undervalued assets, try to buy those white elephants and turn them into something a little better, maybe like a pink elephant. Today's word is "White Elephant."

Definition - A white elephant is a stock that nobody wants to own because it appears at the moment the stock will never provide good returns.

One past example of a white elephant was General Motors Company. The "old" GM's debt, corporate structure and union obligations created a hopeless situation prior to its bankruptcy and reorganization.

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Prior-Preferred"

So, when you issue preferred stock and you're a public company or private company, you can issue certain classes of securities. Preferred A, Preferred B, Preferred C. If you issue Preferred A and then you issue Preferred B, Preferred A is now prior to Preferred B, and that may claim certain liquidation preference, rights and dividends over the B. Generally, when you want to issue more Preferred (stock), you probably have to get the approval of the Prior Preferred. This is an important component of understanding financial structure and why Preferreds are issued. They're used all the time and different arrangements. I'll cover that someday in one of the classes you could attend with me. But "Prior Preferred" is the Word of the Day, "Prior Preferred."

Definition - A class of preferred stock that has preference over one or more other classes of preferred stock of the same issuer on all dividends and assets in liquidation than claims of other preferred stock.

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Warrant"

Now, when you're buying a stock at a private company or doing a private placement, generally you can get warrants depending on the transaction. What does the warrant allow you to do? Let's get a simple definition here so that everyone can understand. So, let's say you're going to invest in company "Y" and you're going to buy their stock at $2.00 a share. They may issue a warrant to buy another share at $4.00 and they may give you the right to buy it for up to 5 years. That's called a "Call Warrant," future value. And now you have the right to buy it, but not the obligation for 4 years or 5 years, however long the warrant is good for. This is considered an "equity sweetener." Now, if you have a Warrant at $4.00 and the stock goes to $10.00 and you can sell it, you may want to buy it at $4.00 and sell it at $10.00 and make the profit. Now, generally, the company gets the $4.00 a share, you sell it for the $10.00 and the $6.00 profit is yours. Warrants are a very important part of financial structure. I bought warrants myself, privately. I participated in transactions where I got warrants in deals, and they could be a big sweetener in making money. Really for the shareholders, for the company, it's a great way of raising extra capital and allows the investor to have upside for the risk they take. Today's word is Warrant.

Definition - A derivative that gives the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a security, most commonly an equity, at a certain price before expiration. The price at which the underlying security can be bought or sold is referred to as the exercise price or strike price. An American warrant can be exercised at any time on or before the expiration date. Warrants that give the right to buy a security are known as call warrants; those that give the right to sell a security are known as put warrants. Warrants are inducements to motivate the recipient to do something.

Warrants are in many ways similar to options, but a few key differences distinguish them. Warrants are generally issued by the company itself, not a third party, and they are traded over-the-counter more often than on an exchange. Investors cannot write warrants like they can options. Naked warrants are issued on their own, without accompanying bonds or preferred stock. There are a variety of warrants such as traditional, naked, wedded, and covered. Investors may find trading warrants to be a complex endeavor. Unlike options, warrants are dilutive. When an investor exercises their warrant, they receive newly issued stock, rather than already-outstanding stock. Warrants tend to have much longer periods between issue and expiration than options, of years rather than months.

Hello YouTube, Todd Ault here, and Welcome to Wall Street Words! Today's Wall Street term is "Tombstone"

I'm not talking about Tombstone, Arizona. I'm talking about our tombstone filed by an investment bank when they've raised capital for a public or private company. Now, this tombstone, when it's published, like usually in The Wall Street Journal or One Financial magazine. There's lots of places the tombstone can be public but it's effectively an advertisement that says, "Hey, we closed this transaction. Here's all the investment banks that were involved. Here's the lead underwriter. Here's the codebook runner." All the things needed when raising capital for public and private companies. These tombstones are published in publications all over the country. It's also a way of an investment bank to pound his chest and say, 'Look what I did!." Now, it usually provides a link or a way for you to find out about the prospectus that this investment bank issued. Tombstones are important part of the process. Now, secondarily to this, I'll point out that lots of tombstones are sent out now on the Internet. If you're on a mailing list, they posted them on their web sites, they send you an e-mail saying, 'hey, look what we did." Today's word is "Tombstone."

Definition - A written advertisement of a public offering placed by investment bankers who are underwriting the issue. It gives basic details about the issue and lists each of the underwriting groups involved in the deal. The tombstone provides investors with some general information and directs the prospective investors to a link where they can obtain a prospectus. A tombstone is one component of the disclosure requirements for public security offerings required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

While a tombstone ad is just a brief announcement alerting investors to the upcoming security sale, a prospectus goes into greater detail and gives investors the information they need to make an investing decision. When a company issues securities to the public, the SEC requires that each investor receive a prospectus. The tombstone describes the types of securities that are offered, the date they are available, the number of shares or bonds to be sold, and how the securities can be purchased. If a new debt security receives a credit rating, that rating can be included in the tombstone. A tombstone advertisement gets its name from the black border and heavy black print one typically has in print media. The tombstone lists the syndicate members who are involved in the underwriting of the security, with the primary members listed in larger type at the top of the advertisement.
