Preferreds and bonds in general have been discussed very little here. Most of the active posters here are in their accumulation phase so commons seem more attractive to them for the CAP appreciation potential. The closer I get to full retirement, the more I want to educate myself. Low interest rates are going to put a lot of pressure on higher yielding funds. Some due diligence will be required to ensure I don't enter at the worst possible time. My one remaining preferred fund has run up to a point where I am uneasy buying new shares.
