In your simplistic example. If the company only issues 10 shares of stock, and all 10 shares are purchased.

Chester would not be able to purchase 4 shares, he would have to wait till someone is willing to sell him a share.

Now if the company wanted to issue 4 more shares of stock to allow Chester to buy. That would actually decrease the value of the stock due to dilution.

I’ve never heard of someone not being able to purchase a stock, or having to wait for them to become available?
