What is a Preferred Share?

[@swank8508]

Please keep doing what youre doing! This channel is amazing, and it would crush me to see it go down the clickbait path of the infographics show

[@lampredos]

Never found such a concise explanation of preferred shares within ten minutes elsewhere. This channel is a gem.

[@PassiveIncomeTom]

Thanks for the detailed explanation! 👍

[@neal2049]

Great vid, thanks. I would love to hear more about Options. I know that you've done vid about options before, but would love more detailed/longer vid.

[@BarrettCharlebois]

I really like that you use Canada in a lot of examples and topics. I read things like the intelligent investor (Ben Graham) and similar materials and they're always talking about things from an american perspective. Most of it transfers over but there are a few details every once in a while that makes things different for us Canadians. The problem is that as someone who is only about a year into their financial literacy journey, I don't always know how to spot those details. Hey, maybe that could be a video idea. Just a 5 min video on some of the key things like terminology differences and the like

Jam packed video. Awesome work, Richard! I still do consider prefs = fixed income

Awesome man. This was my introduction to the topic, and now I'm going to spend my Sunday researching it further. Thanks!

One thing that really stuck with me was when someone observed that preferred stock for a solid company in a relatively reliable industry (banking, real estate, utilities) offers about the same rate as “junk” bonds. If we believe the market to be at least mostly efficient, there has to be a reason for that. Looking at the attributes of preferred stock you can see why the rate is what it is. Preferred stock is essentially an open-ended loan _subordinate_ to the company’s other debt. The company can just pay a fixed amount per year (which because of inflation makes borrowing cheaper for them and less profitable to you each year) and if they run into trouble they can defer or even skip those interest payments. That’s a good amount of uncertainty to take on, so you’d better get paid.

A few years ago in Spain banks pressed preferred shares to many savers who didn't understand what they are. Many of them lost lots of money.

[@JK-rv9tp]

I don't touch the leveraged Class As, but I have the preferreds of a couple of Split Share Funds, Financial 15, and Middlefield eCommerce and Real Estate. Financial 15 pays over 6 points, and Middlefield pays just over 5. The Middlefield one is a bit like having a global 1st mortgage, with a LTV of under 40%, on the entire real estate portfolio (the total NAV is approaching 30$ with the pref at 10). That's quite a lot of downside protection for the yield. Financial 15 has almost as much downside protection with its unit NAV at about 120% of the pref share value.

HEY! could you please make a video explaining the repo rates, and how all this short term funding market for banks work?? It has been a huge topic in the financial world this week, and I just can't wrap my head around it and I'm pretty sure a lot of people have been having the same issue.

Sir I have a doubt. Can you please clear. Talking about the great depression, when people started selling their shares in huge numbers, who purchased their shares?

[@dodid0]

Other people. Doesn't necessarily need to be Americans.. Could have been an individual Japanese investor, or an Malaysian Investment Fund, etc.

[@tusharmahajan845]

[@boskodelic8907]

@@tusharmahajan845 Someone who had a lot of money and was waiting for the depression to pass so they sell it and make huge profit

[@tusharmahajan845]

Thank you guys !! Cheers

[@karanarora28]

No, the price of the stock would just drop if no one wanted to buy, until it was at an attractive price for buyers. Price is all about supply and demand. There rarely are no buyers - only people who are willing to buy for a cheaper price.

Hello, thank you for the great videos. You seem to know a lot about the domain of finance in Canada, what are the jobs outlooks for finance in Montreal? Will I have good opportunities there?

I have a question .If a country have hyperinflation , what to do in order to get back to normal situation?

[@alejandrocapell2780]

Most times they render the useless currency invalid and start issuing a new one, often after a change in government, but I'm sure he can give a more detailed explanation

[@JanBruunAndersen]

Stop creating (and printing) more money out of thin air. Since it is normally the government that creates/prints the money, that will usually lead to a lack of money for the government. To fix that there are basically three options: 1) Raise taxes, 2) Cut expenses, 3) Find new income sources. Socialists governments, like that in Venezuela, do not like cutting expenses(2), and it has already nationalised the oil industry(3). That leaves raising taxes, which will just lead to companies shutting down, the owners and rich people leave the country, and more unemployment and anger among the poor. Anger directed at government...
