Check Out Ambac (ABK) Preferreds 

The company showed a profit last quarter and looks like it’s on the rebound. Check out the preferred Ambac shares ([AKT], [AKF], ABK.prZ and [GJW]) for good income and growth potential.

GJW has currently suspended dividends but the stock is cumulative and accrued interest will be paid when dividends resume – Yield is currently over 70%. Ambac can’t pay dividends on common shares until they pay all dividends due on GJW.

Note that the Z series preferreds have a mandatory conversion to common shares on 5/17/11. In the meantime you’ll collect 28% + dividend which is factored into the current share price (i.e. you’re betting on the price of the common shares increasing).
