A share of stock represents ownership in a firm and a claim on a portion of the firm's assets and earnings. Firms receive money from a stock sale in their firm during the initial public offering (IPO) or any subsequent public offerings, not when the stock is traded between investors on the secondary market. A dividend is a direct payment made by a firm to its shareholders out of its profits. A capital gain refers to the increase in the value of an asset, like stock, between when it is bought and when it is sold.
