Shares
Large listed companies in the US and Europe as CFDs: go long or short, committing less capital than the value of the shares.
Share CFDs: what is different
With a share CFD you do not become a shareholder: you have no voting rights and do not receive dividends directly — they are reflected through an adjustment on the position. In exchange you can short sell and use leverage.
Corporate actions (splits, rights issues, mergers) are reflected on open positions according to the rules in the specifications.

questions
More questionsDo I own the shares?
No: a CFD tracks the share price but does not make you a shareholder. That is also why you can profit from falls, with the risks that come with it.
