Q: Greetings 5i team: Could you please comment on the above stocks with respect to their current versus historical valuations? I guess I am trying to gauge the extent(if at all)their share price is being "propped up" by their yield. I think I know the sectors that are considered most vulnerable to interest rate increases, but do any companies jump to mind that could be more negatively affected than their peers, particularly if rates rose faster than the market anticipates or for the wrong reasons, i.e. inflation versus economic growth? Thank you and best wishes,

Q: Hi Peter
I own this floating Rate Preferred share issue which pays out a dividend which is based on 70% of the prime rate, it has taken a significant hit to say the least.
Recently it was downgraded to pfd-3 (high) i imagine because of debt risk,i hope this doesn't translate into Junk.
Could you comment on this Preferred share rating and the risk associated with it.
Thanks Gord
