Yes, I'm hoping those pfd's will hold up okay. I have CLP-D too. Also FR-PJ and HRP-D which are similar (I presume) to the ones that you have. I bought after the preferreds of these reits were mentioned here. Additionally I have LXP-PD and some of the common. For a convertible preferred etf, I am still with AGC. Looks like it's a wrong decision: I'd not recommend this one - I'm not comfortable with its use of leverage. claymore.com
