Under Article 8a, deviation of the publication of sovereign ratings from the calendar must be accompanied by a detailed explanation of the reasons for the deviation. While the next scheduled publication date for our ratings on Greece is 12 June 2015, the deviation has been caused by DBRS\u2019s elevated concern over the potential for a deterioration in Greece\u2019s creditworthiness as a result of actions of the new Greek government following the general elections on 25 January 2015, and subsequent developments. Reviews are typically concluded within three months.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2015-02-05\/greece-here-s-what-happens-next\">respect to Greece<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If a bridging program can be agreed to at the Eurogroup meeting, there will then be some months of difficult negotiation ahead for Greece and its lenders. With Varoufakis today saying that he did not even reach an agreement to disagree with Sch\u00e4uble, all parties still have a long way to go to reach the necessary common ground for a sustainable agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Absent that agreement, Greek banks can continue to rely on ELA funding for the moment. (See an explainer here for how ELA works)<\/p>\n<p>If there is a complete breakdown in negotiations, however, it is likely that the ECB will then take the view that the Greek banks will have become insolvent at that point, due to their holdings of Greek debt.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was another positive day for the Canadian preferred share market, with PerpetualDiscounts gaining 11bp, FixedResets winning 22bp and DeemedRetractibles up 13bp. Despite the relatively calm index numbers, the Performance Highlights table is quite lengthy, dominated by winning FixedResets. Volume was below average.<\/p>\n<p>For as long as the FixedReset market is so violently unsettled, I\u2019ll keep publishing updates of the more interesting and meaningful series of FixedResets\u2019 Implied Volatilities. This doesn\u2019t include Enbridge because although Enbridge has a large number of issues outstanding, all of which are quite liquid, the range of Issue Reset Spreads is too small for decent conclusions. The low is 212bp (ENB.PR.H; second-lowest is ENB.PR.D at 237bp) and the high is a mere 268 for ENB.PF.G.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that all rich \/cheap assessments are:<br \/>\n\u00bb based on Implied Volatility Theory only<br \/>\n\u00bb are relative only to other FixedResets from the same issuer<br \/>\n\u00bb assume constant GOC-5 yield<br \/>\n\u00bb assume constant Implied Volatility<br \/>\n\u00bb assume constant spread<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s TRP:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/prefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/impVol_TRP_150205.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/prefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/impVol_TRP_150205-300x246.jpg\" alt=\"impVol_TRP_150205\" width=\"400\" height=\"328\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27746\" \/><\/a><br \/><i>Click for Big<\/i><\/div>\n<p>The respite from bad behaviour for the TRP FixedResets is over; TRP.PR.E, which resets 2019-10-30 at +235, is bid at 24.30 to be $0.85 rich, while TRP.PR.C, resetting 2016-1-30 at +154, is bid at 16.70 to be $0.48 cheap.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/prefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/impVol_MFC_150205.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/prefblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/impVol_MFC_150205-300x246.jpg\" alt=\"impVol_MFC_150205\" width=\"400\" height=\"328\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27747\" \/><\/a><br \/><i>Click for Big<\/i><\/div>\n<p>Another excellent fit, but the numbers are perplexing.
