Shareholder

Any person, company, or other institution that owns at least 1 share in a company. A shareholder may also be referred to as a stockholder.

Investopedia Commentary

Shareholders are the owners of a company. They have the potential to profit if the company does well, but that comes with the potential to lose if the company does poorly.
