Dividend 15 Split Corp. (DFN.TO)

(A Top Pick Aug 17/09. Down 6.5%.) Liked it because it was a financial services based preferred shares. Basically a basket of major financial services companies with the maturity value of 10. You're paying a bit of a premium but when you compare to money market yields and bonds it could give you a nice capital gain if things got rocky otherwise you make 5% until maturity.

(Preferred A) Structured product. Capital side has bunch of capital upside performance. Maturing upside of 20-30% in 2013. Committed to giving back capital.

You have to ask, why would you invest in a split market and not buy the individual products themselves. You can't get everything in one product.
