Q: I have owned BPO.PR.I for while,it pays a 12% dividend and I just purchased the othe a few days ago,pays a 10% dividend.My reason for buying them is of course for the yield,but they also will probaby out perform the company shares if rates drop.What's your opinion??

Q: Your thoughts on this one? Both in terms of capital protection and the sustainability of the dividend (10%) over the next 2-3 years

Q: These two preferred are going to be reset next month. Is a conversion from BCE.PC to BCE.PD, or the reverse, tax-free if we choose to do so?

I was very successful in the last 2 years with the BCE.PD floating shares, but would it be wise to let them go and convert to the fixed-reset at this moment of plateauing interest rates? I guess it could depend on the new rates which will be determined on Feb06.

Thanks to the team.
