Hi Grommit - Followed you in on GOVERNMENT PROPERTIE (NYSE: GOV). Will be selling my HRPpB next week and wanted to hedge my lost 8.75% preferred dividend with a safe high dividend payer. GOV is a good candidate as it yields 6.9%. GOV is the spin off of all of HRP government properties back in June 2009. The new dividend will be "qualified" and GOV stock should grow in value especially as the government sector grows. I no longer own HRP common but am looking at starting a new position if there is a sell off below $6.00/share. For now GOV looks like a safe place to park some funds. Peeled off a few shares of BHP. Stock up 2.7% today and approaching both a 52wk high and 10% from an all time high. This is my number one position in the portfolio and after today's sale still remains my no 1 position (10% more than my No. 2 - AAUK). Need to whittle down the shares and reallocate the proceeds into other sectors. EKS
