dividends, and equity, in that it has the potential to appreciate in price.
The details of each preferred stock depend on the issue.
Common stocks:
Common stock is a security that represents ownership in a
corporation. Holders of common stock exercise control by
electing a board of directors and voting on corporate policy.
Common stockholders are on the bottom of the priority ladder
for ownership structure; in the event of liquidation, common
shareholders have rights to a company's assets only
after bondholders, preferred shareholders and other debt holders
are paid in full.
