ACTIVE STOCKS

Listed shares on an exchange that are heavily traded. Active stocks are actively bought and sold, and often have a large number of shares outstanding. Because they are heavily traded, active stocks often have low bid-ask spreads as a result of their increased liquidity.

The most active stocks are listed each day with the volume and the day's gain or loss. They could be actively traded because they have a large number of shares outstanding, or because of a special situation such as there being a tender offer for the company or because of unexpected news.
