You can profit from shares primarily in two ways: capital appreciation and dividends. Capital appreciation occurs when the price of the shares increases over time, allowing you to sell them at a higher price than you paid. Dividends are periodic payments made by companies to their shareholders, representing a portion of the company's profits. By investing in shares of companies that grow in value or pay dividends, you can generate returns on your investment.
