I'll have to consider that one. I'm trying to build a position in PFD if I can get shares at my price. Whereas PGF is concentrated in financials, PFD is in financials and utilities. PFD has about s 1% higher dividend than PGF. Drawback is "annual expenses" for PFD are about 2% (ouch) vs. .7% for PGF. PFD seems to still employ leverage too afaik. Which is double dangerous at least, i.e. an 'investor' borrowing to buy the etf where the etf itself is borrowing to a large extent. Scanning PGF, I don't see that they use leverage.

Your idea of PGF on balance, seems better than mine of PFD.
