Bought starter in IDV (iShares International Select Dividend ETF) sold NWN to raise cash.
Debating holding cash to keep buying things opportunistically or just snapping up some old friends in the form of preferreds (CHS, TDS, CMS, DBRG) ahead of rates possibly lowering.
Received dividend on Wednesday, put in a limit-order to reinvest it. It's the Foreign Trade Bank of Latin America, based in Panama. BLX. One of my most fortunate choices. I'm not sure if a US rate cut would affect it? Anyone have an idea? My other bank? It's in Puerto Rico. FBP. Is that to be lumped-in with U.S. banks or not? Definitely holding these puppies.
