November 13, 2024

PerpetualDiscounts now yield 6.26%, equivalent to 8.14% interest at the standard equivalency factor of 1.3x. Long corporates yielded 4.77% on 2024-11-12 and since then the closing price of ZLC has changed from 15.51 to 15.46, a total return of -0.32%, implying an increase of yields of 3bp (BMO reports a duration of 12.49, but don’t disclose whether this is Macaulay or Modified; I will assume Modified) to 4.80%. Therefore, the pre-tax interest-equivalent spread (in this context, the “Seniority Spread”) has narrowed slightly (and perhaps spuriously) to 335bp from the 340bp reported November 6.
