1.  Re: maybe AEGON will go to $5? death spiral

2.  Re: RBS suspending dividends on their preferreds? 
This is not a short opportunity. Doesn't look like one anyway, based on yesterday's and today's price movement. No bank will ever acquire RBS. I don't think anyone holds any hope that that will happen. The buyer...

6.  Re: Sovereign Prefferred-C Exchange 
I got the impression that both the cash and the new 10.5% security are treated as taxable sale proceeds. Thus, if your basis in the STD-PI preferred is less than $22.50, you...

8.  Re: STD-B vs STD-I 
You refer to YTM (yield to maturity) on these issues. Isn't the maturity on these issues decades away? Effectively no maturity. Santander is offering $78 per $100...

10.  Re: Give The Head of The European Competition Commission A Piece of Your Mind: 
Just look at how the common shares have advanced in the past week. The prospect of deferring the dividends on the preferreds is positive for the common. It's like the...

Common shareholders have already suffered huge dilution. Preferred holders still have a security that will sell at around $20 to $25 per share once this storm blows over. If the...
