Common stock: These are the shares issued by a company to an outsider. These shares entitle a share of ownership to the person acquired them. The holders of these shares will have voting powers and can elect the board of directors. In the event of liquidation, the holders of these shares will get a right on corporation's assets only after the preferred debts were paid off.

Preferred stock: These are the shares which has a preference over common stock holders in the dividend payment at a fixed rate every year and also in the payment of proceeds in the event of liquidation.
