A system where some shares carry more voting power than others so certain owners can control corporate decisions with fewer shares. Think of it like tickets to a meeting where some tickets count for five votes and others for one: it lets founders or insiders steer strategy and board picks even if they don't own most of the stock. For investors this affects corporate governance, the protection of minority shareholders, and how much influence public holders have over major decisions.

A recorded version of a previously live webcast—such as an earnings call, investor presentation, or corporate announcement—made available for later viewing or download. Like a saved TV broadcast, it lets investors rewatch the original presentation to check statements, review details they missed, and verify tone or follow-up information, supporting research, transparency, and informed decision-making.
