RE:keep an eye on the PrefsObscure....thanks for the heads up.
I don't own any ENS prefs but do own ENB prefs as I have mentioned before. I added to those holdings about three weeks ago and they are up 8.5% since then.. While I expect the SP of these prefs to go up further as interest rates decline over the next year, I think the recent move reflects anticipation of at least one rate cut later this year I am not expecting much more price appreciation for another 3-6 months. I would expect the same would hold for split share preferreds.
in that vein I agree that determination of a raise by Middlefield going forward will depend on the premium to NAV for the commons so this price action needs to be closely monitored.
