| Apr 25, 2020 at 17:55 | comment | added | Daniel | @AlexR Thanks for the clarification. For OP, who will probably have to go through a broker it is noteworthy though that some things he may be able to order can indeed go negative for him. So just be cautious and understand what you are buying . | |
| Apr 25, 2020 at 17:10 | comment | added | Alex R | @Daniel: oil futures are not traded in stock exchanges. They are traded in futures exchanges. | |
| Apr 25, 2020 at 15:58 | comment | added | Ellie K | Flux are you asking about stocks of that are traded on public stock exchanges? If so, then the answer is no, stocks cannot trade at negative prices. On US exchanges, a stock is delisted if it even gets below a price of $1 per share. Also, unlimited liability companies are not allowed to be traded on public stock exchanges as described by @DStanley in the linked question in his comment. | |

| Apr 23, 2020 at 15:10 | comment | added | Daniel | @Flux note however there are other things traded on stock exchanges that can go negative - recent example oil futures. | |
| Apr 23, 2020 at 15:08 | comment | added | Daniel | @Flux Stocks are a highly regulated form of a bond. For a company to emit stocks it must have the appropriate form of organisation. That rules out that you ever buy a stock of an unlimited liability company. You can become a stakeholder in a unlimited company, but that involves usually a lot of legal procedures and is not easily tradet. | |

| Apr 23, 2020 at 14:02 | comment | added | Flux | @NeutronStar I'm pretty sure that your statement is only applicable to companies with limited liability. With unlimited liability, aren't the stockholders be responsible for the company's liabilities? | |
