About Stock
A stock is a share in the ownership of a company. Stock represents a claim on the company's assets and earnings. If you continue to buy more stock in a company, your ownership stake in the company becomes greater. Some other names for stock are shares and equity. When you buy stock in a company, you become one of the company’s owners and you are called a shareholder of that company.
About Discount
A discount is an amount off the regular price of an item, for the purposes of stimulating sales of the item. Many stores, such as dollar stores and factory outlets, specialize in discounts. Other stores offer them only on special occasions. Many people have started to limit their purchases to items on discount.
