Q: Preferred shares and fixed income
Hi 5i team : I own only common stocks in my portfolio and since I am a mature person that is near retirement, I have the feeling that my exposure to common stocks is very high. So far, to mitigate my risk, I keep daily of the market changes, so I do not get caught in a drastic downturn.
To get more protection, I have thought in buying some preferred shares , but I know nothing about them to start a position.
Are the P.S. a good way to go ?, if so, what should I learn about them and how (references, books, etc), also what would be a reasonable percentage of my portfolio to have in P.S.?
thanks for your help

Q: The TSX has been on a tear since the beginning of the year and US Markets have hit all-time highs. Do you think the TSX is poised to make new record highs as well? I haven't been reading the financial news a lot lately, so I'm not sure if there is an irrational exuberance that is occurring right now. Would like 5i's thoughts on general market conditions.
Q: Oil industry.
David Fingold was on BNN Business Day Monday stating that in general over the last 50 years oil stocks in broad terms were a poor investment, only beating the average market twice, and that often their dividends were paid out by more stock being issued. A comparison to the airlines was also made.

What do you think of using leverage- no more than 10% of portfolio value?
Can you seeing selling some of these equities when new highs are reached and re-investing the after-tax proceeds?
At the moment it's just buy and hold.
Thanks.
Paul
