WHICH WORD?
share/stock
Either shares [plural] or stock [U] can be used to describe the amount of a company that a person owns or a company's value on the stock exchange. In this sense, share is more common in BrE and stock more common in AmE: The bank holds 60% of the company's shares/stock. • The publisher's stock rose to $27.87 a share.
As a countable noun in both BrE and AmE, especially in the plural, stock can refer to the shares of a particular company or type of company: the largest 500 stocks on the NYSE • technology stocks. Share is less commonly used in this way.
Share, not stock, is used when talking about a particular number of shares in both BrE and AmE: a profit of $3.75 a share • 1.2 billion shares
In BrE, the phrase stocks and shares means ‘bonds and shares'. This meaning of stock is also found in other phrases: a company's loan stock • government stock. The AmE expression for ‘bonds and shares' is stocks and bonds. See note at STOCK
