Stock Options Trading Secrets

A stock option gives the recipient (the "optionee") the right to buy a certain number of shares in the granting company at a fixed price for a certain number of years. Stock options are used both in private companies (mainly where there will be a market for the shares) and public companies.There are two principal kinds of stock option programs, each with unique rules and tax consequences: non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options (ISOs).

Stock option plans can be a flexible way for companies to share ownership with employees, reward them for performance, and attract and retain a motivated staff. For growth-oriented smaller companies, options are a great way to preserve cash while giving employees a piece of future growth. They also make sense for public firms whose benefit plans are well established, but who want to include employees in ownership. The dilutive effect of options, even when granted to most employees, is typically very small and can be offset by their potential productivity and employee retention benefits.
