Preferred stock
A type of stock which is more like a bond than normal shares. Holders can expect a fix dividend forever, much like interest on a loan. Also, in the case of liquidation, capital is paid to holders of preferred stock before the common stockholders. However, preferred stock often comes with limited voting rights.
