3 Preferred Stock ETFs for High, Stable Dividends

Preferred stocks typically aren't first, second or even third to mind when investors think about what they want to include in their portfolios.

But if you're an income hunter and you don't already have these stocks on their radar, you might want to give them a look.

Preferred stocks are frequently referred to stock-bond "hybrids" because they contain elements of common stock (the type of stock you typically invest in) and bonds. For instance, like common stock, preferreds represent ownership in a company, and they typically trade on exchanges. However, like bonds, preferred stocks typically don't include any voting rights.
