Digital Realty Preferreds: Strong Demand Prospects And Discount To Par

Digital Realty Trust (DLR) preferred shares, particularly Series J (DLR.PR.J) and Series L (DLR.PR.L), are rated a buy for relatively higher current income seeking investors. DLR preferreds offer a ~6.46% yield, significantly higher than the common stock's ~2.5%, with a meaningful discount to par and potential for capital appreciation if rates decline. The company's robust $1.8 billion backlog, strong demand for digital infrastructure, and stable debt maturity profile suggests the safety of preferred distributions, along with consistent payout history.
