How it's used
Refers specifically to the legal and financial interest one holds in a company, often used in business or investment contexts. While it sounds formal, it is the standard term used in professional settings to discuss ownership stakes or equity. It is distinct from simply holding 股票, which focuses on the tradable asset itself rather than the underlying rights of ownership.
Examples
They want to buy back the share rights of that company.
How much share rights do you still have on hand?
