| Regular Preferred Shares (Sorted Once a Day) Sorted By Price - Low (Under Par ($25) to High (Over Par)) Most Preferreds are Redeemable at $25--if Possible it is Wise to Buy Issues at or Under $25--Especially when at or after the Call Eligible Date From this page you can start your research on Preferred Stocks. With current prices and yields you should be able to select a few that appear to meet your yield requirements. Preferred shares are shares issued by a corporation as part of its capital structure. Preferred shares normally carry no voting rights (unlike common shares). Dividends are either cumulative or non-cumulative. Cumulative means that dividends continue to accrue if they have been suspended, but they are not paid until the company decides to pay them after suspension. Non Cumulative means they do not continue to accrue (they are gone forever). In either case if the dividends are suspended the company is likely in deep financial trouble. Preferred shares are senior to common stock, but junior to all bonds. Dividends are generally paid quarterly--although a few pay monthly. The earliest call dates are given below. The issues generally have no maturity date. PLEASE NOTE - $100 issues have been REMOVED (as of 1/5/2012).
