5 New PowerShares ETFs

Roger Nusbaum submits: In case you missed it PowerShares is listing another batch of ETFs, only five this go around.

• PowerShares Financial Preferred Portfolio (PGF)
• PowerShares Dynamic Large Cap (PJF)
• PowerShares Dynamic Mid Cap (PJG)
• PowerShares Dynamic Small Cap (PJM)
• PowerShares Value Line Industry Rotation (PYH)

The preferred fund is unique for an ETF, but there are CEFs that invest in preferreds. The three dynamic funds are obviously variations on existing themes, and Claymore has an ETF that it calls Sector rotation.

Roger,

Is it reasonable to expect an estimate of the anticipated yield from the preferred portfolio? If so, how soon after the issuance?

Thank you.

an amount? I own a few individual preferred stocks that yield in the low sixes so maybe that means the above fund will yield in the high fives.

when? not sure but it behooves them to pay the first one sooner than later and they are smart enough to realize this.
