I may give you another word to consolidate the word you mentioned:
shareholder : 股東 (股份所有人)

Answer

Addendum:

The translation should usually be a "lot" of shares. There's also the "board lot", which is a standardized number of shares defined by a stock exchange as a trading unit.

As I said, one lot is often defined as 100 shares. But it can be different, for example on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, as mentioned above.

So always be careful, because lots are defined differently. Check with the stock exchange, or the exchange for whatever security you're doing business with. It would certainly be unfortunate if you buy or sell the wrong number of shares ...
