Voting Rights Shares allotment bring with it voting rights. A member shareholder has one's voting right in the annual general meeting of the concerned company. There are several issues like buy-back etc., which require the company to pass a special resolution. A special resolution comprises 75% of votes cast by people, present and voting, with the quorum of at least two members in a private company or five in case of a public company, besides the board of directors, in a general meeting. 203.196.146.132 (talk) 05:25, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[User-Ishita Bhaduri | Bangalore, India]

What's the difference between a share and a stock? Can't you have a stock in a mutual fund or a mutual organization?--Jerryseinfeld 15:47, 1 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Share and stock usage varies between countries however it usually applies that both refer to the same product. Unit,scrip,holding and etc etc all have a similar usage. Description of share products could go on infinitum for it is all a matter of a countries accepted usage.

US usage is 'shares of the stock' of a company. In modern British English, "share" and "stock" are almost interchangeable in most contexts.BaseTurnComplete 21:39, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg

Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Merger

  • Merge - voting interest would fit nicely in shares as a sub-header, it doesn't need it's own article. PianoKeys 23:17, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

This proposal had no response in over a year. I think voting interest belongs in the article about stock, rather than here. See also common stock and voting stock. I propose the merge banner be removed. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 09:03, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
