Actual bonds, ETFs or bond mutual funds? Depends on whether you are a do-it-yourself and how much money you have. With $20,000 you are better off with an ETF, which gives you a diversified basket. Doing it yourself open you up to a lot of single issue risks.

Perpetuals that are approaching the purchase price. If rates continue to go up so that yields fall, should they sell? He feels they won't get called. Nice yield that should run for a very long time.

Droid phones are taking off. Just sold a division to Nokia (NOK-N) for $1.2 billion area and expected to pay down debt. Also planning on subdividing into 2 divisions, which should unleash shareholder value. One division, which has been losing money, is expected to break even while the other would be making a lot more money.
