RE:RE:FTN - what's the back story hereThe consolidation was caused by the large retraction of pref shares at par going into FTN's extension. I was playing the prefs into the retraction but missed the real action which would have been a short on the capital shares. I think everyone was surprised by the large % of pref that were redeemed. Many posters here only scratch the surface of the intricacies of split shares. An example would be the optionality which shows up in the relative value of capital/pref shares.
