I'm 16, and new to the market. Just got some new stock books.

Outstanding shares are a bad thing right? And an outstanding share is a something thats been sold and not bought?

does the cap have anything to do with outstanding shares and if so what?

Go to some sights like the Motley Fool. They have excellent resources there that can answer a lot of questions.
