PKS - I don't know about this one, but I am holding the preferred stock PKS-b.

I bought a year or two ago, under $17.40 and it's been profitable. I don't know what to think now.

The PKS-b, at $19.11 yields 9.5% counting the dividend only, and 16.5% if redeemed at $25 in 2009 (it is mandatory redeemable, as long as they don't go bankrupt).

PS -- in that above link to SI last march, i mentioned ACAS (my favorite). ACAS was at $22-$23. It over $30 now, and still paying a 10% dividend. I think it's about fairly valued now, but still a good dividend play. They have nice dividend growth plans. Just raised it to .72 from .70 this qtr, and next qtr will be at least .76. Next year TBD.

Paul - thanks for the posting -- many things to look at...
