Stocks or stock
Hi everyone, I was wondering which of the following sentences you considered correct:
You should always sell your stocks* for a higher price than you bought *them
You should always sell your stock* for a higher price than you bought *it
I'm leaning towards the plural usage here, but i'd be grateful for a second opinion!
Thanks in advance!
