> I don't see any common stocks like oil/gas, consumer, etc. That a planned defensive move?

I think I stumbled into this portfolio mix. I bought pref shares a year ago at 1/3 the present price and held on. Don't see a reason to switch. The dividends are very safe, and LXP got safer today. I am around 8% utilities and 10% other. Other includes oil and odds and ends. I am avoiding gas. I think it is time to buy more energy stocks. Nice Low PE's and peak oil issues should return.

Other = DO NXY MRO CVX SVU ARO KMB SKH plus a few small nits.
