WHAT IS The stock market is a market that sells and buys

shares. Activities in the stock market involve
STOCK sellers of shares, buyers of shares as well as

MARKET? institutions and jobs that have an interest in the

shares being traded. The main parties involved
in the stock market are investors, speculators
and the government. Each has different goals
and interests, but the main goal is the same,
namely to obtain maximum profit
 When an investor buys stock, uses the services of a specialist company or a
stock trading app, he or she becomes a shareholder and owns part of a
company. Shareholders can make money by receiving dividends, paid out as
part of the company's annual profits, and when the value of their shares
increases.

Companies can also borrow money from investors by issuing bonds, loans for a
certain period of time with a fixed rate of interest. Securities refer to stocks and
bonds. Every year billions of stocks and bonds are sold or traded on the world's
major stock exchanges

Every day, the press provides prices and other information about the shares of
these listed companies. You can read news headlines about stocks on the
internet and then decide whether each company reflects the good or bad
performance of the company's shares on the stock exchange.

Reading Europeans Log On Investment Fever
Mr english, 51 years old, a computer consultant says "I come in every day, sometimes from the
office, morning and evening" he is still addicted to stock trading after a year and a half starting
it. Mr English is one of 10 Europeans who are feverish to invest online. There's a stock market
boom right now as lots of people are coming in to shop for financial products, as well as selling
and buying stocks. Compared to the United States, where about 20 percent of all trades are
made, moves in Europe are still early. But when the trend picked up American brokers moved to
the UK and set their sights on the UK. Their arrival is also a challenge for European stock
trading companies. Analysts expect this to quickly bring about change in the securities business.
For now although European investors can already use US online applications to buy US stocks,
American companies are not actively promoting this business for fear of upsetting European
securities regulators. However the long-term goal is to expand the system into a truly global
market where investors in any country will be able to trade shares freely across national
boundaries. Although internet usage in Europe still lags behind America's, it is expected to grow
even more in the next few years and the single European currency will push stock trading across
national boundaries.

Phrasal Verb 1
Whats is Phrasal Verbs?

A phrasal verb can be said to be a combination of a verb and an

adverb or a preposition. In some cases, it is a combination of all
the three parts of speech – verb, adverb and preposition. Though
each of these parts of speech have different functions, they play
the role of the verb when they are put together. They can also act
as a phrase and that is why these verbs are called phrasal verbs.

Development Types of Phrasal Verbs

1. Transitive Phrasal Verbs 2. Intransitive Phrasal Verbs

Intransitive phrasal verbs behave exactly like

Just like normal transitive verbs,
transitive phrasal verb can be identified
by its demand for an object.
For example :
It was not possible for Veena to do
away with all of it as they brought
back so many memories of the past.
Can you fill in the required details so
that we can move forward with the
screening process.
a
intransitive verbs. They do not require an
object to complete the sentence they are used
in or make sense of the context.
For example:
My car broke down all of a sudden while
driving through the ghat section.
It has been years since we met, we should
definitely catch up.

Yet, Still, Already

Yet used with the present perfect means 'at any time up to
now'. We use it to emphasise that we expect something to
happen soon. Yet (in this context) is only used in negative
sentences and questions.
Example:
Have you finished your homework yet?
I haven't finished it yet. I'll do it after dinner.
A. Where's Sam? B: He hasn't arrived yet.

Yet comes at the end of the sentence or question.

Language
Focus
Yet, Still, Already

Still used with the present perfect means that something hasn't happened. We
use it to emphasise that we expected the thing to happen earlier. Still (in this
context) is only used in negative sentences.
Example:
I've been waiting for an hour and the bus still hasn't come.
They promised me that report yesterday but they still haven't finished it.
She still hasn't replied to my email. Maybe she's on holiday.

Still comes between the subject (the bus, they, etc.) and auxiliary verb
(haven't/hasn't).

Language
Focus
Yet, Still, Already

Already used with the present perfect means 'before now'. We use it to
emphasise that something happened before something else or earlier than
expected.
Example:
I've already spent my salary and it's two weeks before payday.
He wanted to see Sudden Risk but I've already seen it.
The train's left already!

Already can come between the auxiliary and the main verb or at the end of the
clause.
