Trading in stock is about identifying short-term opportunities, while investing typically targets the long term opportunity
There are several key differences between stock trading and stock investing. Stock trading is aimed at short-term profit from price differences in a short period of time, focusing more on technical analysis and being active. While stock investing is aimed at long-term profit from dividends and capital gains, focusing more on fundamental analysis and being passive.
Stock trading aims at getting short-term gains through frequent buying and selling, while stock investing aims for long-term wealth accumulation by holding assets over time and receiving dividends.
