Gregor, I am not familiar with the holdings of FRIFX nor FRESX. I avoid mutual funds (except a few close end funds). The open end ones seem to collapse on themselves if a run of redemptions starts and there isn't enough cash. I do think very few traders play with preferreds since you can't get large blocks, and there is frequently a huge spread. Preferred holders are probably true investors looking for yield, who would welcome a drop in principle as they continue to buy more every few months. ireizine.com Here is a link to a very wise professional REIT manager who shares his insights.
