Yes, I think that block transactions have affected FNMAS lately.

Let's say one of your stocks is 10% of your portfolio and it goes up 10 times and the rest of the portfolio is flat. Once that happens it becomes over 50% of your portfolio (52.6%).

I suspect that's happening to some of the hedge funds and others. So they are reducing their exposure to FnF preferred stocks a bit. I think we'll be flattish until the next dividend is paid to Tsy on June 30th and the next 10Q comes out in early August. Just mho.

The rotation will happen again but in the opposite direction

how did this work out for you? as even pfds are going up, so may be ok.

no one can predict, no one knows. just believe in your dd.

i bought commmons as it felt that they cannot go any lower, so i would at least break even or lose just a bit with housing recovery.

so you can say lucky or whatever, it is small portion of my pottfolio anyways, mostly have pfds.

even i regert that i did not buy enough commons at those low prices , greed but after the fact. so no regrets. well may be a bit. can't complain. :-)
