I have been reading these posts for many years without writing. After reading yours, I went to do the math on my shares. I don't have as many, but have been around long enough to have purchased preferred shared and remember when it was around $1.40 pre split. Doesn't it need to get to $7.00 to equal the $1.40 pre-split not $70.00? 1.40 times 5 is $7. I'm going to be depressed if $70 is really the answer.
