Hunt For Yield: How Do All The High Yielding ETFs Stack Up

Ultimate Guide To S&P U.S. Preferred Stock Fund (PFF)

Wed, 17 Oct 2012 07:00:17 -0400

Preferred stock investing just isn’t what it used to be. Once a relatively common way for companies to raise money, the expansion of the corporate credit market has largely consigned preferred stock to private/venture-stage companies and financial corporations like banks. That said, preferred stock still boasts some very appealing attributes; this asset class is known for often exhibiting volatility levels comparable to fixed income, while marrying a steady income stream with the potential for capital appreciation. For investors looking to hold a portfolio of preferred stocks, the S&P U.S. Preferred Stock Fund (PFF) is an option to consider [see How To Pick The Right ETF Every Time]. In A Nutshell PFF, launched in March of 2007, is intended to replicate the performance of the S&P U.S. Preferred Stock Index. This fund recently held 267 securities and boasted a net asset value in excess of $10 billion. This ETF has solid [...]

Why You Need a Preferred Stock ETF

Fri, 25 May 2012 09:00:09 -0400

With interest rates frozen at near-zero levels for the next two years, investors have been scrambling to find sources of income for their portfolios. As such, dividend investing has become increasingly popular in the past few years, as investors have been quick to adopt the benefits offered by securities that pay out a steady cash distribution. Though some go for bonds and others may hone in on a particular equity sector, preferred shares represent one of the most enticing plays in today’s environment [see also 25 Things Every Financial Advisor Should Know About Commodities]. Preferred stock represents a unique class of ownership that has a higher claim on the assets and cash flow than common stock, meaning preferred shareholders will generally receive a dividend that must be paid out before dividends to common stockholders. The higher priority on the pecking order for dividends makes preferreds especially enticing, not to mention that their [...]
