Maybe because someone who has owned it 20 years just noticed it pays 5% vs. 8% for FTN and FFN.

This fund began February 25, 2004 and yes that's over 20 years. Go to the documents section on the website. And my broker says the current div is 5% for preferreds. I am aware it's rising but it's not catching up.
