Let’s see, a football player belongs to a football team, a stock belongs to a company.

A football team belongs to a league, a company belongs to a market, based on the type of goods and services they sell.

But how can a football player explain how a stock works?

Simple! The more soccer player achieves results that benefit the team, this spills over to the league and from the league to the market, he values ​​himself, let’s use Messi and Ronaldo as an example:

Cristiano Ronaldo left the Spanish league, the brands linked to him also left, in this case, the Spanish league lost part of its market value but continued to appreciate because of Messi, but eventually, Messi leaves Barcelona and goes to Paris Saint Germain.

And we all know how PSG gained value and audience at all levels.

In this way, the Spanish league has lost its value in the eyes of many (investors).

This is how a stock is on the stock exchange, whenever a stock appreciates, the company gains a lot of value in the financial market; how is a stock valued? When more investors are interested in it, simple!

That’s why a football player can be a good explanation for how a company’s action works.

But I want to know your point of view, let me know your opinions in the comments.
