Joe, The MWR you posted a few days back also caught my fancy so i joined in . I can't remember if that was Thurs or Fri but I see that I am up. These preferred are working out very well for you thus far. Is the plan to hold some of them longer term and trade others? Like common shares, these issues are experiencing tremendous volatility.

Friday was an ugly day for me. I got scared when I read about the possibility of the global markets being closed so I started selling. Not 5 - 10 minutes later I saw the rise so I jumped back in to a lesser extent - and ended up underwater at the close on those shares. Today I'm ok with it, but I was amazed at the fear I felt all of a sudden, when I was working so hard to keep things in check.

I've aged a lot this month. Should have gone to Italy.
