June 22, 2010

Nothing happened today.

The Canadian preferred share market was fairly well-behaved today, with PerpetualDiscounts up 7bp to keep the streak alive (only six more trading days until month-end!) and FixedResets down 6bp. Volume was slighly above average, but there is only one entry in the performance highlights.
