Q: The share price has steadily increased recently. Was it because the five year anniversary is approaching? If I don’t sell by the anniversary date, what will happen?

ALA this year has announced the redemption of Series E preferreds and Series C preferreds, so some investors are likely better on a redemption for Series G now. But it is important to note that redemption is entirely up to the company and it will only do so if it is in its interest (i.e. if it can refinance at better terms). Nothing happens if investors do not sell. If not redeemed then the preferreds continue, but they are reset preferreds so the dividend could change depending on rates at the reset date.
