A corporate action is an event initiated by a public company that affects the securities (equity or debt) issued by the company.
 Some corporate actions such as a dividend (for equity securities) or coupon payment (for debt securities) may have a direct financial impact on the shareholders or bondholders; another example is a call (early redemption) of a debt security.
 Other corporate actions such as stock split may have an indirect impact, as the increased liquidity of shares may cause the price of the stock to decrease.
Distressed securities are securities over companies or government entities that are experiencing financial or operational distress, default, or are under bankruptcy.
 As far as debt securities, this is called distressed debt.
 Purchasing or holding such distressed-debt creates significant risk due to the possibility that bankruptcy may render such securities worthless (zero recovery).
Security analysis is the analysis of tradeable financial instruments called securities.
 These are usually classified into debt securities, equities, or some hybrid of the two.
 Tradeable credit derivatives are also securities.
 Commodities or futures contracts are not securities.
 They are distinguished from securities by the fact that their performance is not dependent on the management or activities of an outside or third party.
 Options on these contracts are however considered securities, since performance is now dependent on the activities of a third party.
 The definition of what is and what is not a security comes directly from the language of a United States Supreme Court decision in the case of SEC v. W. J. Howey Co..
 Security analysis is typically divided into fundamental analysis, which relies upon the examination of fundamental business factors such as financial statements, and technical analysis, which focuses upon price trends and momentum.
 Quantitative analysis may use indicators from both areas.

Burgfriedenspolitik (] )—literally "castle peace politics" but more accurately a political policy of "party truce" — is a German term used for the political truce the Social Democratic Party of Germany and the other political parties agreed to during World War I.
 The trade unions refrained from striking, the SPD voted for war credits in the Reichstag and the parties agreed not to criticize the government and its war.
 There were several reasons for the "Burgfrieden" politics: the Social Democrats believed it was their patriotic duty to support the government in war; they were afraid of government repression should they protest against the war; they feared living under an autocratic Russian Czar more than the German constitutional monarchy and its Kaiser; and they hoped to achieve political reforms after the war, including the abrogation of the inequitable three-class voting system, by cooperating with the government.
