well from the Islamic perspective from what I have read it isnt because you become a part owner of that company. But i guess if it is gambling in the normal sense is highly debatable. Some argue you can read the markets and etc. so it is not risky compared to gambling on poker machines but at the same time you can say the same thing about texas hold em that you can read the situation at hand and play accordingly. But if you have insider info then it ain't gambling is it he he he he he.
