1. Nice video, thank you.BTW - yes, Bonds get paid first, but then it is all about risk, bonds usually give you low return while if you own a stock, it could give you more than 100% return..or zero..what's your comfort zone?
2. are stockholders liable for cancellation of debt when a company is going through bankruptcy
3. So a bond is like a COMMERCIAL PAPER that is issued for long term instead of short term, and with provisions like coupon rate?
4. thanks
5. Thanks a lot
6. Bonds get paid first since the company is obliged to pay back what it owes while owning stock is not a promise that you will have returns because you are a part owner so you must be prepared to the fact that you may lose your money.
