Yes. CFDs on more than 1,000 individual stocks across US, EU and Asian listings, traded on the Shares account or as CFDs on Standard/Ultra Low accounts depending on instrument.
Direct answer
Stock CFDs at XM let you take long or short price exposure on individual companies without owning the share. The Shares account is the dedicated route — raw spreads + per-trade commission — while a subset of high-liquidity names is also available as CFDs on Standard and Ultra Low accounts.
How stock CFDs differ from owning shares
- No ownership of the underlying share; no voting rights, no dividends paid as cash (dividend adjustments apply).
- Leverage available (typically 1:5 to 1:20 retail, depending on entity).
- Short selling is allowed without the borrow constraints of cash markets.
- Position size is in lots, not whole shares (1 lot = 100 shares for most US tickers).
