!!!Aktie

Shares of stock, 1) share(s) in an  Aktiengesellschaft; 2) security 
(equity instrument) which represents part ownership of a company. - In 
the case of bearer shares (exchange-traded,  Stock Exchange), the 
right to ownership is transferred by handing over the certificates, 
whereas registered shares are transferred by endorsement: While 
ordinary shares give the owner one vote per share, preference shares 
are not endowed with voting rights; however, the latter give priority 
for the receipt of dividend payments.
