You have to keep in mind that Buffetts view of a bottom is not your average person's view of a bottom. He's willing to invest over a horizon of 5-15 years. He has enough money to invest like that.
For us, it's like lime of 2-8 hours horizon (lol) or 4444 of 6 months to 2 years. (I hope I'm right).

invest in good companies, with a good product and great management at historically cheap prices, and you'll be richer than if you didn't is my general motto.
some of us don't have the time or stomach for quick trades

just did a quick read up on investopedia on common vs preferred stocks What is the difference between preferred stock and common stock?
Looks like a good deal to do this, whats the downside of preferred shares though?
