A lot of people come to the stock market
[2]
and what happens to them?
[4]
People invest their money
[6]
and sometimes destroy their wealth.
[8]
They tell everyone that
[10]
share market is like gambling.
[12]
That it is impossible to make money from it.
[14]
But friends,
[16]
if you do thorough research
[18]
and give your investment some time
[20]
and keep your investment for long period
[22]
then you can become a good investor
[24]
in the share market.
[25]
I, Jagdeep Sigh, welcome you to Groww channel.
[27]
This is the first video in the
[30]
share market for beginners series.
[32]
In which, if you are interested in the share market,
[34]
but you don't know anything about it
[37]
We will help you become a good investor
[39]
from a beginner.
[41]
Let's start today's video.
[43]
First of all,
[45]
let me tell you what the market
[48]
in the share market stands for.
[49]
In any market there will be two parties
[51]
who exchange something
[53]
or the other with each other.
[55]
Similarly when I talk about financial market,
[57]
there are two parties.
[59]
One party that needs money
[61]
to run its business.
[63]
Second party who has extra money
[66]
that needs to be invested somewhere.
[69]
Imagine there is a company
[71]
that needs money to run its business.
[73]
It uses financial market
[76]
to get money from investors
[78]
which it uses for running its business.
[80]
How does the investor give money
[82]
to the company?
[83]
How does this transaction happen?
[85]
This transaction happens in two ways.
[88]
First method is shares.
[90]
Imagine that a company is worth 100 rupees
[92]
It has ten shares.
[94]
So one share is worth ten rupees.
[96]
To get money,
[97]
the company sells its two shares.
[100]
Two shares were sold,
[102]
so one investor gave twenty rupees for two shares.
[104]
In this way, the company gives away its shares
[106]
and the investor gives money for those shares.
[109]
A feature of share market is that
[111]
for every share,
[113]
an investor gets a certain percentage
[115]
of ownership in a company.
[117]
How much shares they buy
[119]
they become owner to that much of the company.
[121]
The second method is debt.
[124]
Debt, like when we take loans.
[126]
Likewise, companies take loans
[128]
and pay interest from time to time.
[130]
After a point of time,
[131]
they have to pay the full principal amount.
[132]
Now you must be thinking why
[134]
the investor bought the shares of this company.
[136]
How does it benefit the investor?
[138]
An investor can benefit from buying
[140]
shares in two ways.
[142]
First: price appreciation.
[145]
To explain it in simple terms
[147]
The first investor bought
[149]
the shares of the company for ten rupees.
[151]
Assume that the price of the shares
[153]
doubled and became twenty.
[155]
So the investor got ten rupees profit on each share.
[157]
This is called share price appreciation.
[160]
Second:
[163]
which investors like us commonly ignore.
[165]
But friends,
[167]
dividends are very important.
[169]
What are dividends?
[171]
Imagine that the company
[173]
after running its business
[174]
made a profit
[176]
of rupees 100 in a year.
[177]
Out of 100 rupees,
[179]
the company kept 30 rupees
[181]
for future expansion
[183]
How much has it left?
[185]
Seventy rupees.
[187]
This 70 rupees of profit is distributed
[189]
among the shareholders.
[191]
Assume that the company had ten shares
[193]
then each shareholder gets seven rupees.
[195]
This is called the dividend.
[197]
To explain it again,
[199]
out of its profits,
[201]
the amount after deducting
[203]
what the company saves for future expansion
[205]
what remains is distributed among the shareholders,
[207]
the portion each investor get
[209]
is called a dividend.
[211]
An attribute of the dividend is that
[213]
it is entirely upon the company to
[215]
decide whether or not it wants to give out dividend.
[217]
Because many companies don't give dividends
[219]
saying that it invests all of its profits
[221]
on itself.
[223]
To give you an example
[225]
of price appreciation
[227]
a good example would be MRF shares.
[229]
The shares that used to trade at 1500 rupees.
[231]
For those who bought it then,
[234]
it became 70,000 at some point in time.
[237]
Whenever we talk about price appreciation
[239]
many examples come to our mind.
[241]
But we don't pay enough attention to dividends.
[244]
Come on, let's talk about a company
[246]
that has paid dividends to its investors
[248]
from time to time.
[250]
Because dividends are also
[251]
a good means of income.
[252]
And investors should pay more attention to it.
[254]
To talk about dividends,
[256]
a good example is
[257]
Coal India.
[258]
The current share price of Coal India
[260]
is around 200.
[261]
And this company has till now
[263]
paid over hundred rupees of dividends
[264]
to its investors.
[265]
So you can imagine
[267]
how much profit you can make via dividends too
[269]
if you choose a company
[270]
that gives good dividends.
[272]
If you are still confused about dividends,
[274]
dividends come directly
[276]
to your bank account whenever the company
[278]
declares dividend.
[279]
If I were you,
[281]
I would be thinking
[283]
I understood that dividends come
[285]
from company's profits.
[287]
But how does the share price of a company increase?
[289]
If the share price of a company
[291]
is now hundred rupees,
[292]
how does it increase and become more?
[294]
What is that factor that
[296]
takes the price up?
[298]
Now let's talk about that.
[300]
If try to tell in you
[301]
in three words
[303]
how share price rises or falls
[305]
Those three words are "demand and supply".
[307]
You must be thinking
[309]
that I am confusing you by throwing big words.
[311]
What does demand and supply really mean?
[313]
Let me tell you.
[314]
Imagine that a company started.
[316]
The share value of that company
[318]
was one rupee.
[320]
There were hundred shares.
[322]
The sales of this company was only ten rupees.
[324]
After ten years the sales
[326]
of the company
[328]
increased to hundred.
[330]
So the company grew ten times.
[332]
Even then what was the number of shares
[334]
in the company? The shares were still hundred.
[336]
But since the company grew
[337]
more people would want the shares
[339]
of this company
[340]
because it is growing.
[342]
When a company grows, more investors
[344]
come forward to buy its shares.
[346]
But the number of shares will remain the same.
[348]
The supply will remain the same.
[350]
Then what happens?
[352]
More investors willing to buy
[354]
means that the existing investors will
[356]
increase the price.
[358]
So when demand increases
[360]
of a company's shares,
[362]
its share price increases.
[364]
How does demand increase?
[366]
Demand increases with business growth.
[368]
When a company performs well,
[370]
the demand for its shares increase
[372]
and its price increases.
[374]
But friends,
[376]
if the company does not perform,
[378]
if the sales were worth ten rupees today
[380]
and it became 1 rupees tomorrow,
[382]
what will happen?
[384]
The investors will think about selling its shares
[386]
and buying shares from another company.
[388]
In that case, there will be more
[390]
sellers than buyers.
[392]
Then the share price will start falling.
[394]
This is what is meant by
[396]
demand and supply
[398]
on the basis of which
[400]
share prices rise and fall.
[401]
Demand and supply is controlled
[403]
by many factors.
[405]
Is a company's growth a reason for
[407]
increase in its share price?
[409]
No, friends.
[411]
There are multiple factors involved.
[413]
There are a few macroeconomic factors
[415]
that depends on the economy.
[417]
Some are company-specific--
[419]
based on how the company performs.
[420]
Do not be confused.
[423]
We will talk about these factors
[425]
in detail in the upcoming videos.
[427]
Now you must be thinking
[429]
that if an investor has bought
[430]
a company's shares
[432]
and they want to sell it
[433]
how can it be sold?
[434]
how will this transaction take place?
[436]
Will I spread word on the road
[438]
that I want to sell it?
[440]
No, friends. For this
[441]
there are exchanges in India.
[443]
Exchange is a place where
[445]
transaction of shares take place.
[447]
A share from one person is sold to another person.
[449]
Now I will tell you how many exchanges
[451]
there are in India
[453]
and how they function.
[455]
To talk about stock exchanges,
[457]
there are two stock exchanges in India.
[459]
First, Bombay Stock Exchange
[461]
which is our oldest stock exchange.
[463]
Second, NSE, National Stock Exchange.
[465]
where currently the most
[467]
volume trade happens.
[469]
To explain volume,
[471]
it is where the most number of shares are bought and sold.
[473]
So does investors like you and me
[475]
go to the exchange to buy and sell?
[478]
No. That's where stock brokers
[480]
come into the picture,
[481]
who are situated between the seller
[483]
and the exchange
[485]
and facilitate the trade.
[487]
They take orders from us
[489]
and give us confirmation.
[491]
To trade without brokers,
[493]
for investors like us
[495]
is almost impossible.
[496]
When we talk about banks,
[498]
the banks are regulated by RBI.
[500]
RBI is the entity that regulates all the banks.
[502]
Similarly,
[504]
in the share market
[506]
all the exchanges in the share market
[508]
is regulated by SEBI.
[510]
SEBI is such an entity that
[512]
protects regular investors like us.
[514]
When a problem arises for the investors,
[516]
SEBI works to resolve it.
[518]
SEBI also makes sure that
[520]
there are no wrongful transactions taking place.
[522]
Shares are not used in wrong ways
[524]
and the market is neutral.
[526]
