The stock market is very volatile, which can be very intimidating to a novice
investor. That is why investors must always monitor or keep track of their
investments, which means being able to read or interpret the daily stock
quotes—a list of prices of stocks at one point within the trading day.
In the past, stocks were quoted in fractions, but now, most exchanges use
decimals. Stock quotes are updated regularly during the trading day. Based on
these numbers, investors can make decisions on whether to buy or sell, or hold
the stocks.
Stock quotes and charts are often found in the financial section of a newspaper,
financial magazine or online. These charts provide details on the trends and
stock prices of companies that trade stocks in the public trading markets, and
the chart is organized in a standardized format of ten (10) columns for easy
reading. Here is how to read the basic stock quotes.

Buying Transaction:
Mr. X wishes to buy a stock whose market price is P10.00. Based on the Board Lot Table, the number of shares he can buy
at a regular transaction should be in multiples of 100 shares. In this case, if Mr. X wants to buy 1,000 shares (which is a
multiple of 100 shares) his required cash outflow will be as foll
P 10,000.00
P 10,000.00
Transaction Fee
The Exchange collects 1/200 of 1% (0.5 basis points) on gross value for every buy and sell transaction executed. The fee is
exclusive of 12% value added tax (VAT).
The Securities Clearing Corporation of the Philippines collects 1 basis point on gross value for every buy and sell transaction
executed. The fee is inclusive of 12% VAT.
Brokerage Commission
A stockbroker is compensated for his services in executing orders on the Exchange through commission charges, which are
paid by both the buyer and seller to their respective brokers.
For trade transactions covering equity and equity-related products, the maximum commission rate is 1.5% of the total
transaction cost plus 12% VAT. The minimum commission rates depend on the amount of the transaction. (See Table 2)
Upliftment/Withdrawal Fee
If a buying client opts for a stock certificate to be issued in his name, he must make the request through his broker who will then
issue the upliftment request through the PDTC system. Upon receipt, PDTC will then submit the request to the transfer agent for
the issuance of the certificate. PDTC will charge the broker an upliftment/withdrawal fee of Php50 per certificate issuance
request. The transfer agent will charge their usual issuance fee per certificate on top of PDTC's upliftment/withdrawal fee.
TRADING/ TRANSACTION FEES AND TAXES
Cancellation Fee
If a selling client has physical certificates, he must have the certificates converted into
book-entry form in the PDTC system by requesting, through his broker, for a direct
transfer (DT) with the transfer agent, which costs Php100 (plus 12% VAT) per
certificate for the transfer of ownership of shares to PDTC Nominee Corporation
(PCNC).
In addition to the DT fee, a client must pay cancellation fee of Php20 (plus 12% VAT)
to the transfer agent for cancellation of the certificates to be lodged in PDTC (for
lodgment of shares). This is applicable only to listed equities.
Stock Transaction Tax
• Sales of equities listed and traded on the Exchange are subject to a stock transaction
tax of 3/5 of 1% (60 basis points) of the value of transaction charged to the seller, in
lieu of the capital gains tax. The sale, barter or exchange of shares of stock listed and
traded at the PSE are exempt from documentary stamp tax.
Withholding Tax
• Under the National Internal Revenue Code of 1997, and except in cases where tax
treaties are in force, dividends received from domestic corporations are subject to a
withholding tax of 10% if the recipient is a citizen or resident alien, 20% if the recipient
is a non-resident individual engaged in trade or business in the Philippines, 25% if the
recipient is a non-resident individual not engaged in trade or business in the
Philippines, and 30% if the recipient is a non-resident foreign corporation. Dividends
received by domestic and resident foreign corporations are not subject to tax. The rate
of income tax withheld on dividends paid to a non-resident foreign corporation may be
reduced to 15% if the country in which the non-resident foreign corporation is domiciled
(a) imposes no taxes on foreign-source dividends or (b) allows a credit against the tax
due from the foreign non-resident corporation for taxes deemed to have been paid in
the Philippines equivalent to 15% of such dividends.
The Exchange Composite Index
The term bullish is derived from the coarse and forceful characteristics of a
bull. A market is said to bullish when prices increasingly move upwards. In
other words, despite some technical corrections arising from profit taking,
technical rallies result in higher price resistance. It is associated with
investors’ optimism, economic recovery, government stimuli and political
stability.
The term bearish is based on the rude and surely characteristics of a bear.
In a bearish market, prices are dropping continuously. There may be
technical rallies from time to time but both price resistance and support
continuously decline. It is associated with pessimism, economic downtrend,
government restraints and political instability.
Effects of Stock Dividend on Market
Price
When stock dividend is declared by a corporation, there are four dates
involved. These are the dates of declaration, record, ex-dividend and
issuance of the corresponding stock certificates.
Date of Declaration. This is relevant in the analysis of financial statements
because it is as of this date that the corporation has to recognize the transfer
from retained earnings to an account that will ultimately be an addition to
capital stock. The account may be “Stock Dividends Distributable” which
should appear also in the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet.
Date of Record. This refers to the cut-off date in determining whose names
appear in the stock and transfer book of the corporation and are therefore
entitled to the stock dividend.
Date of Ex-dividend Trading. This refers to the date on which the stock is to
traded ex-dividend or as separated from the stock dividend. This is usually
two to four days before the official date of record. Due to the voluminous
transactions affecting the stocks of a listed corporation, a number of days is
allowed for the bookkeeping lag. The price of the stock on this date is
expected to go down to reflect the decrease in the book value per share.

A type of preferred stock that does not pay the holder any
unpaid or omitted dividends
If the corporation chooses to not pay dividends in a given year,
the investors does not have the right to claim any of those
forgone dividends in the future.
Example XYZ Company chooses to not pay its P1.10 annual
dividend to its cumulative preferred stockholders. In this case,
these shareholders do not receive the dividend this year, but
they are entitled to collect this dividend at some point in the
future. If the preferred shares mentioned above were
noncumulative, the above illustrates why a cumulative
preferred share is worth more than a noncumulative preferred
share.
Participating Preferred Stocks
A type preferred stock that gives the holder the right to receive
dividends equal to the normally specified rate that preferred
dividend receive as well as an additional dividend based on
some predetermined condition.
The additional dividend paid to preferred shareholders is
commonly structured to be paid only if the amount of dividends
that common shareholders received exceeds a specified per-
share amount.
Furthermore, in the event of liquidation, participating
preferred share holders can also have the right to receive the
stock’s purchasing price as well as a pro-rata share of any
remaining proceeds that the common shareholders receive.

Debt instrument or debt financing allows you to pay for new
buildings, equipment and other assets used to grow your
business before you earn the necessary funds.
This can be a great way to pursue an aggressive growth
strategy, especially if you have access to low interest rates.
Relative to equity financing, you also benefit by not hand over
any ownership or control of the business.
On the other hand of debt financing is that you have to repay
the loan, plus interest. Failure to do so expenses your property
and assets to repossession by the bank.
Debt financing is also borrowing against future earnings. This
means that instead of using all future profits to grow the
business or to pay owners, you have to allocate a portion to
debt payments. By misappropriation of debt can severely limit
future cash flow and growth.
