Most straight preferreds are considered to be part of a company’s permanent equity. This means these shares don’t have a redemption date - the company has no obligation to buy them back on a fixed date. 3, record 2, English, - straight%20preferred%20share

We sold straight preferred on very favourable terms during the proposed but unsuccessful takeover bid. We bought 1 straight preferred, the Bank of Montreal, to yield about 9 3/4 %. 4, record 2, English, - straight%20preferred%20share

The correct French equivalent is "action" in this context because "stock" and "share" are used interchangeably as a singular noun. However, "stock" is usually a collective noun, with "actions" as its French equivalent and "shares" as its synonym. 5, record 2, English, - straight%20preferred%20share

On considère la plupart des actions privilégiées classiques comme partie intégrante des capitaux propres permanents, c'est-à-dire que ces actions n'ont pas de date de rachat - la société n'est pas obligée de les racheter à date fixe. 1, record 2, French, - action%20privil%C3%A9gi%C3%A9e%20classique
