The rise in prices

When we talk about price increases , we are referring to an increase in the sales values ​​of a product (or the contracting or use of a service). Suppose that, in a grocery store, a kilogram of tomatoes was sold for $100 ; A week later, in the same place, a kilo of tomatoes was $120 . Therefore, a price increase was recorded.

If there is a general increase in prices in an economy, the phenomenon known as inflation occurs. Inflation is a problem, since the population's income loses purchasing value.

Let's take the case of a family that receives a monthly income of 50,000 pesos , a figure that allows them to cover their expenses on food, health, education, etc. If there is inflation where they live, and therefore there is a widespread increase in prices, it is likely that this money will no longer be enough to satisfy their needs, so they will need to generate extra income.

The concept in the bag

The idea of ​​rise is important in the stock market (the institution where transactions for the sale and purchase of shares and other securities take place). An upward trend implies market growth; The opposite occurs when the stock market falls.

The rise in a company's shares represents that their value increases. In this way, the value of the company also grows. This increase may be due to different factors, such as the presentation of positive accounting results or good future prospects.

Thanks to the rise in shares, it is possible to carry out operations that generate large profits. An investor can buy a stock for $10 and, after a 20% rise, sell it for $12 . If you purchased and then sold a thousand shares at those same prices, you made a profit of $2,000 .

Growth

The rise in a company's shares implies a revaluation of the company in question.
