Preferred stock ETFs
Preferred stock ETFs hold a hybrid between bonds and common stock: preferred shares that pay fixed, bond-like distributions but sit above common equity in the capital stack. Most pay monthly and yield more than investment-grade bonds, at the cost of interest-rate sensitivity and heavy financial-sector concentration.
