I am a big fan of preferred stocks. They used to be thought of as a bizarre security, but now preferred stock is a major target for income investors during the historically low bond-yield period we’ve been in for years.

In 2015, Sunstone Hotel Investors Inc. (NYSE:SHO) offered its Series F 6.45% cumulative preferred stock at $25 par value. Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) has a long history of preferred stock issuances.

Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) just reported earnings, and even though the numbers weren’t great and its trading business is suffering, it still had operating earnings in the billions.
