Hello and welcome back to Learning English Pro.
316
Today we're diving into the world of stock market investments and expanding your financial vocabulary.
317
So whether you're an aspiring investor or simply curious about stock market, this video is for you.
318
If you're ready, let's get started.
319
Let's cover the basics.
320
Stock markets are essential platforms where investors buy and sell ownership in companies.
321
They help businesses raise capital, provide liquidity for investors, and set stock prices based on supply and demand.
322
These markets offer diverse investment opportunities and act as economic indicators.
323
Examples of stock exchanges include the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ, the London Stock Exchange and Tokyo Stock Exchange.
324
Another fundamental term of stock market investments is shares, also known as stocks.
325
These are units of ownership in a company.
326
When you own shares of a company's stock, you own a portion of that company
327
and your ownership entitles you to a share of its profits and a say in certain corporate decisions.
328
If you own shares or stocks in a company, you are known as a shareholder in that company.
329
Dividends are payments made by a company to its shareholders as a reward for owning its stock.

331
Our next term is Bull Market.
332
A bull market is a period in the financial markets characterized by rising stock prices,
333
optimism amongst investors and overall confidence in the economy.
334
It's a time when investments tend to perform well and there is a general belief that the upward trend will continue.
335
The opposite of a bull market is a bear market.
336
It's a period in the financial markets, characterised by declining stock prices,
337
pessimism amongst investors and a lack of confidence in the economy.
338
During a bear market, investments tend to not perform very well,
339
and there is a belief that the downward trend will continue.
340
Let's move on to portfolio.
341
This is a collection of investments held by an individual
342
or entity to achieve diversification and manage risk in their overall investment strategy.
343
Portfolio diversification involves spreading your investments across different asset classes
344
such as stocks bonds of real estate to reduce risk as
345
different types of investments may perform differently under various economic conditions ultimately helping to achieve a more balanced
346
and stable investment strategy stocks analysis is the process of evaluating stocks for investment
347
often using fundamental and technical analysis.
348
Let's take a look at some of the ways stocks are valued.
349
First up we have the P-E ratio.
350
This is price to earnings ratio.
351
This valuation metric is calculated by dividing a stock's price by its earnings per share.
352
Another analysis metric is market capitalization.
353
When you multiply the stock price by the number of shares,
354
you get the total value of a company's outstanding shares of stock.
355
Next up, we have some trading terminology.
356
Blue chip stocks are stocks of well large established companies with a history of stable performance.
357
Day trading is the practice of buying and selling stocks within the same trading day.
358
Let's move on to our next term which is bid and ask prices.
359
The bid price is the maximum price a buyer is willing to pay for a stock,
360
while the ask price is the minimum price a seller is willing to accept.
361
The difference between them is known as the bid-ask spread.
362
The term volume refers to the total number of shares traded in a specific stock
363
or the entire market within a given timeframe.
364
It can indicate the level of interest and liquidity in a stock.
365
A market order is an instruction to buy or sell a stock immediately at the current market price.
366
It guarantees execution but may not guarantee a specific price.
367
A limit order is an order to buy or sell a stock at a specific price or better.
368
It ensures a specific price but does not guarantee execution if the market price doesn't reach the limit price.
369
A stop-loss order is a predefined price level at which a stock is automatically sold to limit potential losses.
370
It's a risk management tool used by traders.
371
When it comes to the stock market, there are two different types of investors.
372
A retail investor is an investor who buys and sells stocks for personal portfolios.
373
While institutional investors are usually large organisations like mutual funds or pension funds that invest on behalf of others.
374
Today we're diving into the world of mortgages and exploring some essential mortgage terms.
375
Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or simply looking to understand the process better, this video is for you.
376
Our first term is the subject of our video, mortgage.
377
A mortgage is a legal agreement between a borrower and a lender, typically a bank, that allows the borrower to obtain funds to purchase a home.
378
The property itself serves as collateral for the loan
379
and the borrower makes regular payments including principal and interest until the loan is paid off.
380
Next up we have principal.
381
The principal is the initial amount borrowed in a mortgage.
382
It's the base amount on which interest is calculated.
383
Over time as you make payments, the principal balance decreases.
384
Moving on to interest rates.
385
This is the cost of borrowing money, expressed as a percentage.
386
It determines how much you'll pay in interest over the life of your mortgage.
387
Interest rates can be fixed or adjustable.
388
A fixed rate mortgage has a consistent interest rate throughout the life of the loan.
389
It offers stability and predictable monthly payments.
390
On the other hand, an adjustable rate mortgage or a variable rate mortgage has an interest rate that may change periodically.
391
It often starts with a lower rate but can increase over time.
392
The fixed rate period in an adjustable rate mortgage is the initial period during
393
which the interest rate remains fixed before it begins to adjust periodically.
394
Let's move on to down payment.
395
The down payment is the initial amount paid by the home buyer when purchasing a property.
396
It's typically a percentage of the home's purchase price, and a larger down payment often leads to more favorable mortgage terms.
397
Our next term is amortization.
398
It's the process of paying off your mortgage over time through regular payments which include both principal and interest.
399
Over the life of the loan the proportion of principal and interest in each payment changes.
400
Let's discuss escrow.
401
An escrow account is set up to hold funds for property taxes and insurance.
402
Part of your monthly mortgage payment goes into this account to ensure these expenses are paid when due.
403
Next up, closing costs.
404
These are fees and expenses associated with finalising a mortgage and the purchase of a home.
405
Closing costs include charges for services such as appraisal, title search and legal fees.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
