TLDR : Answer Summary

The consensus in the comments is that stocks or shares cannot be used to satisfy the 500,000 THB financial requirement for the Thai 'soft power' DTV visa. Funds need to be readily accessible in liquid form, such as bank statements or a sponsorship letter.

The funds need to be instantly assessable so stocks / shares isn’t going to cut it.
