Q: I own these shares. these are rate reset preferreds for Brookfield infrastructure that pay a yield of 7.475% until March 2029. These dividends are eligible dividends.The company is trying to redeem these shares at 26.50 a share. I will vote against it. If however if a majority vote for it, is there any legal way for dissenting shareholders to resist being taken over. This process seems somewhat unfair because the company could've offered 26.50 to those shareholders who want to be taken out and leave the other shareholders to continue to receive their dividends

Q: I believeI that this rate reset will reset on February 28 2024 at the five year Government of Canada rate +3.96% with a minimum reset of 5.85% . If that happened today it would be approximately 8.1%.. Is that correct? Assuming the 8.1% at the reset what would the probability be that these preferreds are redeemed at $25 per share (currently 22.2)?

Q: Hi,

I purchased these utility and telecoms largely because of their low beta. In the recent downturn, they fell as much or more than hi growth stocks like SHOP, FB, AMZN or NVDA. AQN was down over 40%?? How do you account for that? Seems to me I'm better off ignoring 'safety' and going for growth?
