RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Debentures are paying full interest
RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Debentures are paying full interestMy broker has changed my purchase to to exclude the interest today. They haven't changed the sale yet so it looks like I have a lot of extra cash but that will change soon. I thought this was the case but when it showed the purchased costing an extra $70,000, as I said I paniced. I felt lucky to only lose $16.

Over the past few years, it has been trading on an interst flat basis instead of the usual accrued interest basis. My experience is that most brokers do not understand this, and even their back offices stumble over it. So mistakes are to be expected.
