Thanks to Assiduous Readers niagara and PS for bringing this to my attention!
looks like Bank Prefs are disappearing more and more…
Wonder if the O’s (Series 39) will be redeemed – wont’ be sad if they are 🙂 Guess we just wait and see.
no idea. some of the guys here follow things far closer. i’ve been noticing a lot of the bank prefs have been moving closer and closer to par every day.
it has been a profitable few months with the prefs. can’t complain. though, i’m not holding tons of bank prefs. just enough to make it fun.
It looks like someone thinks the O’s will get redeemed. Given the pricing of other bank issues, they should trade more around $22 right now. The Y seems very likely as well.
My speculative bets (purely based on price and absolutely no knowledge of inside baseball) are BMO.PR.S and F get redeemed as well as TD.PF.M and B.
RY.PR.S? I guess it could go either way. Same with NA.PR.S. I’d guess RY.PR.Z gets extended.
