Preferred Stock

Preferred stock is a type of stock that typically pays a fixed dividend to shareholders and has priority over common stock in the distribution of assets in the event of a company's liquidation or bankruptcy. Unlike common stock, preferred stock typically does not carry voting rights, but it has a higher claim on the company's assets than common stock. Preferred stock is considered a hybrid security and is often used by companies to raise capital without diluting the ownership and control of its common stockholders.
