Preferred Stock Investing-The Good , The Bad and The In Between
I chickened out as my thesis was broken... When Capital One brought that 5.1% to market that scared me off... I captured one divi profit and bailed... I could easily make a case they hold off calling until merger which is still possible... Its just I felt so confident thinking the best they could do is issue a 6% non cum, but the market is going crazy... Mostly I had too much risked at 2000 shares, knowing I had 60 cents locked up already, so I bailed.
Did you notice KTH crazy trading today? Bouncing to $33.35 before settling back to $32.38. Almost sold at peak, but I am intent on keeping these due to their decent yield, non callable feature, and 2028 call.

PVTBP seems to have hit a wall on the way back to $26 and above. Hopefully, as the next dividend date draws nearer, we will see a little firming of the price to $26.50 or better.
It's a done deal that this will be called - question is when?
Guess I'm betting that it will be after the merger, and very shortly thereafter. If I'm correct, we have 2 dividends; if not, too bad.
