Hi Grommit - I would love to get 8% on the DFTpA but at Par ($25/share) they yield 7.875%. I need to be able to buy around $24.50/share to capture that 8% yield. DuPont Fabros Technology, 7.875% Series A Cumul Redeem Perp Preferred Stock Ticker Symbol: DFT-A CUSIP: 26613Q205 Exchange: NYSE They also have a Preferred D which yields 7.7% at current prices. DuPont Fabros Technology, 7.625% Series B Cumul Redeem Perp Preferred Stock ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's on my watch list for an add at $24.50/share or lower. For now, I am buying the MHRpD 8% which yields 8.16% at current prices. They also make their distributions monthly rather than quarterly. These preferrds are much better than my Credit Union yield of 1% or even my Vanguard GNMA yield of around 4%. The risk is a bit more as these preferreds have a B-/Ba3 rating (MHR is no rated) but Free Flow Cash appears to more than cover the interest obligations for both MHR & DFT. EKS
