Convertible security

A convertible security is a security that can be converted into another security. Convertible securities may be convertible bonds or preferred stocks that pay regular interest and can be converted into shares of common stock (sometimes conditioned on the stock price appreciating to a predetermined level). Other convertible securities include asset-linked bonds, asset-linked notes, and bonds with asset warrants. Although a bond with an asset warrant is a type of convertible security, regular warrants are not. A regular warrant provides an equity option, where the holder may opt to buy newly issued shares at a determined exercise price and date. Equity capital notes are similar to warrants, except that there is no exercise price.

Types

Types of convertible securities in the market are:

gollark: More secure than what?
gollark: That does not sound like very good advice in general, let alone in some sort of extremely dangerous post-apocalypse.
gollark: People are too complicated and there are too many factors.
gollark: Except by chance.
gollark: Anyway, I can't actually watch the video because of my poor internet connection here, but generally I don't think long-term and general predictions of the future which aren't just *really vague* come true particularly often.
