There are a few key differences between investing in and trading Johnson and Johnson shares via CFDs. When you invest in a company, you are buying shares in that company and become a part-owner. This entitles you to a portion of the company's profits, through dividends, and voting rights at shareholder meetings. When you trade JNJ shares via CFDs, you don't own the underlying asset and therefore don't receive any dividends or voting rights.

However, you can benefit from both rising and falling markets, as you can trade JNJ shares both long and short. CFD trading also allows you to use leverage, meaning you can trade with a much smaller capital outlay than if you were buying the shares outright. This can magnify your profits, but also your losses, so it's important to use leverage cautiously.
