Key Terms
closed-end investment companyfinancial
A closed-end investment company is a pooled investment fund that issues a fixed number of shares in a one-time offering and then has those shares bought and sold on an exchange like a stock; a professional manager runs the portfolio of assets. It matters to investors because the market price can move above or below the value of the underlying holdings, affecting returns and income, and shares may be less flexible to issue or redeem compared with open-ended funds—think of buying a slice of a privately baked pie whose market price can differ from the pie’s actual ingredients value.
net assetsfinancial
Net assets represent the total value of what an organization owns minus what it owes. Think of it like a person’s belongings after paying off any debts—what remains is their net worth. For investors, net assets indicate the overall financial strength of a company or fund, showing how much value is available to shareholders.
shares outstandingfinancial
Shares outstanding are the total number of a company’s stock units held by all shareholders, including institutional investors and company insiders — think of them as the total number of slices of the company’s ownership pie. Investors use this number to calculate how much of the company each share represents, and it directly affects per-share measures like earnings per share, ownership percentage and valuation; when the slice count changes, an investor’s claim and the company’s per-share metrics change too.
