Both common stock and preferred stock have their advantages.

When considering which type may be suitable for you, it is important to assess your financial situation, time frame, and investment goals.

With common stocks, when a company makes a profit, stockholders receive payment in dividends. They have the ability to generate greater revenue, but dividends are never guaranteed, so investors need to invest carefully. With preferred stocks, owners receive a share of the company just like common stocks, but there's a fixed yearly dividend. This means that there's a consistent flow of income, which means preferred stocks had less risk than common stocks. However, with preferred stocks if a company has financial difficulties, the stock owner's investment is still tied to the company.
