How To Buy Bunzl Shares Guide

Buying Bunzl Stocks and CFDs

When investing in Bunzl you have several options as to what type of investment you wish to conduct. You can buy traditional Bunzl shares with one of our listed brokers or you can trade what is known as CFDs or contracts for difference.

We explain in detail the difference between buying Bunzl shares with stock brokers and trading Bunzl with CFDs below.

Bunzl CFD Trading vs Traditional Share Dealing

CFD trading is quite much like stock trading except when you exchange a CFD you do not actually own any Bunzl stock.

If you buy Bunzl shares with a stock broker you actually own a share of Bunzl. When you trade a contract for difference (CFD) you have an agreement with your CFD broker and are speculating that the Bunzl price will change up or down.

Lets explain why you would buy Bunzl as a CFD instead of as a share.

If you went and brought 100 Bunzl shares at $100 a share with a stock broker you own $1000 of Bunzl.

The main difference when trading Bunzl as a CFD and buying Bunzl as a share is contracts for difference offer increased leverage.

Contracts for difference are traded on margin which means to have $1000 invested in Bunzl you would not need to invest the full amount as you would with a stock broker. You could invest a fraction of the amount ( known as the CFD margin ) with a CFD to hold a similar position in Bunzl. Trading an Bunzl CFD allows investors to hold larger positions than their invested amount. Be aware that although investing in an Bunzl CFD like this amplifies any potential profit. It always exaggerates your potential losses which may exceed your amount invested.

If you invested in an Bunzl share with a stock broker you would only lose the amount you invested as you pay the total cost of your position to your broker upfront. There is no leverage.

An Bunzl CFD long would be hoping to profit from a rise in the Bunzl share price. An Bunzl CFD short would be aiming to profit from a fall in the Bunzl stock price. Trading CFDs allows traders to profit from both directions of the Bunzl price on the financial exchange. Giving traders greater chance to move with the financial markets.

With traditional Bunzl shares you can only profit from a rise in the Bunzl stock price.

Bunzl CFD and Stock Market Times

When trading in traditional Bunzl shares you are limited to when the stock exchange is open. You can only buy and sell with your broker when the market is open.

With CFD trading you can deal 24/7 around the clock.

Buying Bunzl Shares with a Broker

Buying shares with a stock broker limits your risk to your initial investment as stock brokers require you to pay for the total amount of your investment. Stock brokers offer no leverage or loans when buying Bunzl stock. This limits your risk to your initial amount invested in Bunzl. You can only lose the amount invested with traditional Bunzl shares. Another benefit of buying Bunzl shares with a broker is that you may be eligible to receive Bunzl company dividends if applicable.

If you Invest in Bunzl via a CFD you have no shareholder privileges as you don't actually own any underlying assets in Bunzl. If you buy Bunzl stock with a broker you may receive shareholder perks and benefits. There are certain requirements to be eligible for some of these Bunzl benefits as in owning a certain amount of stock for a set period.

If you own shares in Bunzl you may be eligible to voting rights at Bunzl shareholder general meetings.

Bunzl Shares and CFDs and Tax

Investment in Bunzl Stocks and shares are only exempt from tax if the Bunzl shares were brought through an ISA ( Individual Savings Accounts ) or SIPP ( Self Invested Personal Pensions ).

Should I trade Bunzl Stocks and Shares or Bunzl CFDs?

Investing in Bunzl stocks and shares is better suited for long term investments. Historically Bunzl shares provide better returns over the long term, usually a 10 year period.

Bunzl CFD trading is more suited to intra day and mid term traders. Wth intra day trading on an Bunzl share investors aim to profit on the fluctuating highs and lows of the Bunzl price throughout the day. Day trading as you can imagine focuses on profiting from the daily Bunzl stock price change.

Both types of trading have different benefits and risks. Make sure you have a good understanding of what you are doing before you invest.
