Share price is the market value of an equity or stock. Share prices are in constant flux as buyers and sellers interact on stock exchanges, with supply ultimately dictating the price. Share price is the main factor in portfolio performance, as investor profit is the difference between the price at which they buy and sell a stock.
Stocks and shares are traded through exchanges, which match together buyers and sellers. At whatever price enough buyers can be found for a seller to execute their order, the trade can be executed. One advantage of executing trades via an exchange is price transparency – both sides can be sure they got the fair market price for their trade as all prices are public.
