weighted average price financial

"Weighted average price (€)"

Weighted average price is the average price of a security where each trade or component is counted according to its size, so bigger trades pull the average more than smaller ones. Think of it like calculating the average cost of a grocery haul where items you bought more of have greater influence on the final per-item cost. Investors use it to understand the true average price paid or received, judge execution quality, and compare trading performance against market movement.

outstanding shares financial

"18.5% of its outstanding shares as of 2021"

Outstanding shares are the total number of a company's stock units that are owned by all external investors and insiders, excluding any shares the company holds itself. They matter to investors because they determine each shareholder’s slice of ownership, how company value is divided per share (affecting price and earnings-per-share calculations), and the weight of voting power—like how slicing a pizza into more or fewer pieces changes the size of each person’s share.
