CONT

The shares or units of many of Canada's 20 or so closed-end funds trade on stock exchanges or on the over-the-counter market, in contrast to mutual fund shares, which are issued and redeemed by the fund itself.

OBS

The correct French equivalent is "action" in this context because "stock" and "share" are used interchangeably as a singular noun. However, "stock" is usually a collective noun, with "actions" as its French equivalent and "shares" as its synonym.
