Explained in plain English

What are liquid shares?

Liquid shares are easily bought or sold on the stock market without significantly affecting their price. When a large number of shares, like the 911 million mentioned for SpaceX, become liquid, it means they are now available for trading. This can increase market activity and potentially influence the share price.
