market float

问题如下：

Which is most correct with regard to market float?

选项：

A.

It means shares excluding those are not available to foreign investors.

B.

It means total outstanding shares.

C.

It means total outstanding shares excluding shares held by controlling shareholders.

解释：

C is correct.

Market float means the total outstanding shares excluding those held by controlling shareholders and those are not available to foreign investors.

C是正确的。

市场流通量通常是指投资大众可以买到的股票数额。对于那些股权较为集中的公司，控股股东持有绝大部分的股票数，而这些股票对于普通投资者来说是不可得的，所以要剔除掉。所以B错。
