When not specified, the term stock typically refers to a. preferred stock b. common stock c. optioned stock d. split stock

The correct answer would be B, Common Stock.

Explanation:

The stock is the ownership of a company's share to someone. In simple words when someone buys share of a company, he basically owns a share in that company.

Common Stocks are the stocks or shares on which the stock holder will receive dividend, but it is not specified that how much dividend will be given to him to when it will be given. Usually dividends are paid annually depending on the financial situation of the company. Dividend payments can be missed by a year. There is no hard and fast rule for common stocks to release dividends after every year.

So when talking about the stocks simply, we always mean the common stocks. Stocks are called the common stocks just to differentiate it from the preferred stocks.
