johntan1979 | Warrants are classified under "equities". |
gill15 | So is preferred stock but I guess becasue for valuation purposes PS is treated as Fixed income securities when dividends are clearly paid....how do we know its clearly paid? |
Logaritmus | Investopedia tells us that Preferred stock is equity, but usually has a fixed dividend payouts so it is fixed income security for its owner and we may treat it as a fixed-income obligation. |
joeclark | PS is normally a debt instrument (technically). F*ck investopedia. |
I passed! I did not get a chance to tell you before the exam - but your site was excellent. I will definitely take it next year for Level II.
