Preferred Stock - Your Guide to Steady Dividends!

📜 What Is Preferred Stock — And Why Do Some Investors Love It?

Preferred stock is like the middle ground between stocks and bonds:
✅ Pays fixed dividends
✅ Gets priority over common stock
❌ Usually comes with limited or no voting rights

💡 Here’s the 40-Second Breakdown:

✅ Steady Income:
Preferred shares often pay fixed quarterly dividends—paid before any common stockholders get theirs.

✅ Higher Claim Priority:
If the company goes under, preferred shareholders are higher on the payout list than common ones.

✅ Lower Volatility:
Preferred shares tend to move less dramatically than regular stocks—great for income-focused portfolios.

📊 Example:
Company pays $1 per quarter per preferred share. You’ll get that $1 before anyone holding common stock sees a dime.

🎯 Why It Matters:
Preferred stock offers a more predictable income stream—ideal for conservative investors, retirees, or anyone looking to balance out a growth-heavy portfolio.

But remember: dividends aren’t guaranteed forever. Always research the company before jumping in.
