    SIE Exam BEATS: Preferred Stock

    Send us Fan Mail Preferred stock shows up all over the Series 7, and it can feel more complicated than it really is. In this episode, we make it smaller. We cover the preferred stock concepts you need to know for the exam, including: • Preferred stock vs. common stock vs. bonds • Fixed dividends and $100 par value • Current yield • Dividend priority and liquidation priority • Cumulative vs. noncumulative preferred • Dividends in arrears • Participating preferred • Adjustable-rate preferred • Convertible preferred • Callable preferred • Conversion ratio and conversion value • Call risk and reinvestment risk • The biggest preferred stock traps you’ll see on the Series 7 The big idea: Preferred stock is EQUITY. It may act a little like a bond because of its fixed dividend, but preferred shareholders are owners — not creditors. Remember the pecking order: DEBT → PREFERRED → COMMON And when you're calculating current yield: Annual dividend ÷ Current market price This episode is designed to help you learn preferred stock through repetition, music, examples, and rapid-fire review so the concepts stick when you sit for the exam. 🎥 Series 7 Whisperer on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@series7whisperer 📚 Series 7 Exam Help & Resources https://series7exam.org 🎓 Private Tutoring & Exam Prep https://capitaladvantagetutoring.com 📱 TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@finster1967 If you're studying for the SIE, Series 7, Series 65, Series 66, or another FINRA or NASAA exam, subscribe and keep working.

    SIE Exam Beat: Bonds( Debt)

    Send us Fan Mail Bond Fundamentals — learn it while you move. Bonds show up everywhere on the SIE and Series 7, and memorizing a couple of definitions isn't enough. In this episode of SIE Exam Beats, we're going deep on the bond concepts you actually need to understand for the exam — using music, repetition, examples, and the hooks that make this stuff stick. We cover par value, coupon rates, bond prices, premiums and discounts, current yield, yield to maturity, accrued interest, interest-rate risk, credit risk, callable and convertible bonds, and more. You'll also lock in some of my favorite exam shortcuts: Rates UP → Bond prices DOWN. Rates DOWN → Bond prices UP. LONG AND LOW, BABY! Long maturity + low coupon = greater interest-rate sensitivity. And when you're looking at credit risk, don't just ask “What does it pay?” Ask: CAN THEY PAY?
