Stocks VS.. Bonds
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Too much emphasis cannot be placed
upon the necessity OF a clear under
standing of the difference between the
stock and the bond in investment. The
distinction is implied in the words used
to express the return on the two classes
of securities. Stocks pay dividends;
bonds pay interest.
Declaration of dividends is within the
discretion of the directors of the cor
poration. Payment of interest is COM
pulsory. A dividend may be discussed
out of profits or out of surplus but
never out of capital. However, there
may be ample profits and there may be
a large surplus and yet directors may
withhold dividends If they deem that
for the best interest of the CORPORA
ton. The shareholder has no remedy
except to elect new board of directors
for which purpose he must rally to his
support a majority of the stock at an
annual or a special meeting
Interest on bonds has to be paid re-
CARELESS of earnings unless the debtor
company is willing to confess bank
ruptcy. OF course, from time to time
corporations do make compromises
with the holders of their bonds but the
latter have right enforceable at law
to interest payments and to return OF
principal at maturity, a right to which
there is no counterpart in the case Of
the stakeholder.
This is the fundamental reason why
for as long a time as there has been
any investment technique at all bonds
have been considered more conserva-
tive holdings than stocks. They have
the prior claim on the assets of the
borrower. The stakeholder takes what
is left If there is anything left
1t must not be inferred, however,
that all bonds are safer investments
than all stocks. There are many quail
flying considerations which we shall
take up later in this series. 1t must
not be inferred that there are no diff
ferenceS between classes of bonds them
selves. These too, will be explained
For the present it is
enough to make plain the totally diff
ferent status occupied by the bond
holder from that of the stakeholder.
