I had mentioned that Soluna Holdings (SLNH) had announced a reopening of the 9.00% cumulative preferred they had originally sold in August. The company has now announced they are selling 445,714 shares at $17.50/share. The prospectus supplement can be…

A shortened week didn’t stop the S&P500 from moving higher by 2.3% and record highs. Of course thinly traded markets can move readily in either direction–plus there is no reason to believe that common stocks will be moving lower anytime soon as ad…

I see there is some discussion surrounding untraded closed end fund Priority Income Fund. As most of us know Priority Income Fund has numerous ‘term preferred’ stock issues outstanding and 1 ‘perpetual preferred’ issue outstanding. Of course the differ…

Finally we have the OTC ticker released. It will trade under temporary symbol GBRPV.

Texas homebuilder and land developer Green Brick Partners (GRBK) has announced they are selling a new perpetual preferred stock issue. The $25/share issue will be cumulative . There will be an optional early redemption starting in 2026. Egan Jones rate…

We see the Fed announcement in 5 minutes and for once in a great while this one has a potential to move markets. Equities have been quiet all morning with the 10 year treasury up 1 basis point. ‘Tension on the tape’ as we would say in the old days. Not…
