What is a Stock Option?

Generally, a stock option is a right granted to the holder of the option to be able to purchase a certain number of shares of a stock at a stated price within a given time period. There is no requirement to exercise the option even if the stated price is reached.

There are two main types of stock options: exchange traded stock options and employer grant options. Exchange traded stock options are stock options that trade on the various stock exchanges and may be bought and sold in much the same fashion that the stocks themselves are. Employer grant options are rights granted by employers to employees as part of compensation packages. All options have a strike price, an expiry date, and a stated number of shares to which the option applies.
