Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hello,
I am wondering if you can please provide some info on this preferred share. Bought many years ago as a "safe" investment only to see value decrease. Finally, it has hit 25 dollars. What is reasoning to hold preferred shares like these and why has this one risen? What makes this desirable now? Are they safer than common shares? I remember being told from an advisor that this is considered fixed income which I don't have a lot of. I have hated preferred shares for so long and am wondering if it makes sense to sell and reallocate funds to a bank or insurance stock. Thank you!

Q: Which of the above funds are reset preferred? When do they reset and what would the dividend look like at that time? What is their present dividend. Could you also tell me about the ones that are not reset preferred? What are they and what is their dividend? Need information as not sure whether to sell with interest rates decreasing. Would I do better holding the common shares? Thanks for providing this service.

Q: I am presently holding the first 3 preferred in a non registered account.
BMO is held in a registered account.
Can you kindly analyze the above preferred. Some have decreased in value in the last couple of months. Any idea why this is happening.
Is it time to sell?
