At $12.90 PWF.PR.A is not such a bargain in my book.
Current annual dividend is $1.26 ($0.315 per quarter) for a yield of 9.77% and we all know it will come down as interest rates (including bank prime rate) come down.
Looking at the long term chart, the last time these preferred shares traded at par was 2007/2008. They traded for a short time above $20 in 2019 when interest rates were almost 0%. And I do not think we will see such low rate again in our lifetime.
I prefer 5 year reset shares in the current environment. In addition to BPO A and T my wife and I recently purchased ECN.PR.C during their slump in December (yield was 12.7% at the time).
