The method signature "+ equals(object2:Stock) : boolean" indicates a public method (denoted by "+") that accepts an argument named object2 of type Stock and returns a boolean value. The method does not return a String object, nor is it private (which would be denoted by "-"), and it only receives one argument, not two.
