I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'distributes shares' is the definition.
'parcels out' can be an answer for 'distributes' ('parcel out' can be a synonym of 'distribute'). I'm not sure about the 'shares' bit.

'agitated speculator' is the wordplay.
'agitated' is an anagram indicator.
'speculator' anagrammed gives 'PARCELS OUT'.
