Brookfield Office Properties Inc T.BPO.PR.A

WOW, E's yielding 11.75% and 10.90% "forever" Minimum yield

[CrazyTrader]

With possible reset yield of 17% if 5yr rate is 4%.    Just CRAZY.      I said I wouldn't buy any more but it's soooooo tempting.      I'm making 4.55% on my savings, so it's not so bad if I don't buy more.   

All just my opinion/view/thinking

You should mortgage your house and open a margin account to load up on those juicy yields, it is such a safe bet when it has the brookfield name attached to it.

I'm Crazy, but not that Crazy.   I have a margin account but I don't play margin.  Straight CASH.   I'm up to my eyebrows in BPO shares..... WAY WAY too concentrated.   But where else can I find such a deal????   Pierre probably frowns on me for not being diversified.    I have more shares than I should have.    It will

that was sarcasm directed at CrazyTrader, in another post I mentionned I once held 4500 BPO.T, started selling @ 19.00 all the way down to 13.00, possibly just about broke even after accounting for the didvidend for 1 1/2 year. If push come to shove BN will cram down the prefs and bond holders here.....beware
