Floating Away: The Magic of Floating Rate Preferred Shares - Financial Freedom, #239 - E-book - ePub

Rarely do things surprise me. As an investor, it's my job to try to predict the future as best as possible. However, I recently received a 31% dividend increase from one of my preferred shares. For four years, I had received the same great dividend payment, and then it increased. I reviewed its prospectus and discovered it was a floating-rate preferred share that reset to a dividend payment of 3-month LIBOR plus 5.317%.
In this case, my new dividend yield is 11%. Floating rate preferred shares can help ensure you stay ahead of interest rates and inflation. They can be a fantastic addition to your income portfolio and Happy Cash Flow Retirement lifestyle. Good Luck!
