Didn't author it and never claimed to author it. Giving a description from wikipedia. Sorry for the missing quotes. Get off your high horse.
Like this better?
"A preferred stock is a class of ownership in a corporation that has a higher claim on its assets and earnings than common stock. Preferred shares generally have a dividend that must be paid out before dividends to common shareholders, and the shares usually do not carry voting rights."
and they also have RSUs
"The restricted stock units are assigned a fair market value when they vest. Upon vesting, they are considered income, and a portion of the shares is withheld to pay income taxes. The employee receives the remaining shares and can sell them at his or her discretion.
Employees with vested RSUs have to wait for the vesting to get cash or stock. ... Because RSUs do not have a strike price, they have better downside protection relative to options. Public companies often grant fewer RSUs than they would options because RSUs are more valuable."
@ryy, don’t plagiarize, as the author of what you falsely put forth as your own original thoughts can sue your a-- off. It’s also a d--k move, a know-nothing posting a know-something’s thoughts.
