Stock Option financial
"The stock option is fully vested and currently exercisable."
A stock option is a contract that gives you the right to buy or sell a company's stock at a specific price within a certain time frame. People use them to potentially make money if the stock's price moves favorably or to protect against losses. It's like holding a coupon that can be used to buy or sell stock at a set price later on.
Ordinary Share financial
"security_title": "Ordinary Share""
An ordinary share is a unit of ownership in a company that gives the holder a stake in its profits and usually the right to vote on key decisions. Think of it like a slice of a pizza where each slice entitles you to a portion of what’s left after bills are paid; value can rise or fall with the business and may pay dividends, so it matters to investors for income, growth and control.
