PFFA: Best Among Its Preferred Share Peers
Since my last 'Buy' update, PFFA has underperformed the S&P 500 but trounced other preferred share ETFs' performance on a total shareholder return basis. A dovish rates environment is more favorable for equities over the preferred share class. But PFFA's leverage, active management, and fixed-to-floating preferred share mix may help it outperform its peers. PFFA is trading close to NAV fair value and its relative technicals seem to be in a limbo state with neither a strong show by the bulls nor the bears.

How I Plan To Invest $700,000 To Pay Bills With Dividends Forever
A portfolio of $700,000 is large enough to produce an annual dividend income that matches the national average individual income of $64,000. I prioritize high-yield investments like BDCs, REITs, MLPs, and option ETFs to achieve a substantial income stream, accepting less capital appreciation in exchange for higher income. A diversified portfolio of 15 holdings, including tech-heavy funds and income-focused assets, can replace a job income, providing financial security and flexibility.

PFFA: The Right Moment To Lock In This 9% Monthly Dividend
Over the past couple of months, PFFA has not performed well. The unfavorable interest rate dynamics have introduced a pressure on PFFA's preferred share real estate, infrastructure and fixed-to-floating rate holdings. Yet, in the article I make an argument on why this could be considered an interesting opportunity for high and defensive income investors to lock in ~9.1% dividend.

PFFA: Top ETF For Preferred Stock Dividend Income
PFFA has delivered exceptional total returns, outperforming other preferred stock and fixed income ETFs, driven by active management and leverage. The Federal Reserve's accommodative monetary policy is expected to benefit PFFA, supporting continued capital appreciation and stable dividend payments. Despite higher expense ratios, PFFA's net returns remain strong, with the cost of leverage likely to decrease as interest rates fall.
