Ever wondered how to double the impact of your charitable donations while navigating the world of preferred shares funds? On this episode of Risk Parity Radio, we kick things off with something special—a segment dedicated to answering listener emails and revealing our latest charitable promotion for the Father McKenna Center. Learn about an incredible matching donation opportunity connected to my appearance on the Financial Quarterback podcast, and hear about a clever donation strategy using donor-advised funds suggested by our listener, David.
Thinking about adding preferred shares to your portfolio but not sure where to start? Listener Ed's email prompts a deep dive into the mechanics and benefits of preferred shares funds. Discover why these funds are appealing, particularly for those in high tax brackets, as we compare ETFs such as PFF, PGX, PFXF, and FPE. I'll share my current top picks, PFFV and PFFD, which boast lower expense ratios and higher dividend payouts, and discuss the tax advantages of qualified dividends. Whether you're looking to enhance your yield or add stability to your investments, this segment is packed with actionable insights.
Finally, we turn our focus to the critical practice of portfolio rebalancing, illustrating how this strategy can help you buy low and sell high. We'll share recent examples to highlight its effectiveness, all while adding a bit of entertainment with a playful nod to "Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory."
