About this site

This site tracks preferred stocks and baby bonds — investments that pay regular, scheduled dividends. Every figure shown is drawn from companies' SEC filings and live market quotes.

What you're looking at
A preferred stock sits between a common stock and a bond. It usually trades near a $25 face value and pays a fixed dividend on a set schedule. Baby bonds are similar, but they are debt that matures on a stated date.
Key terms
YieldAnnual income as a % of the price. Higher means more income — but check why a yield is unusually high.
ParThe face value, almost always $25 — the price the company can redeem the share at.
Discount / PremiumWhether the share trades below par (a discount) or above it (a premium).
Call dateThe first date the company is allowed to buy the share back from you at par.
