The First Trust Intermediate Duration Preferred & Income Fund remains a "Hold" as it trades near its historical discount and faces interest rate uncertainty. FPF's 8.93% monthly distribution appears attractive, with improved NII coverage, but it is likely to start leveling out. The fund's distribution is also relatively tax-friendly, with a large portion being qualified dividends.
