No time for a new graph, but the rates have kept moving the same way .. A+s are now selling from 9.9% to 10.9% in the top 500 parts (which is actually, they way FC truncate rates, anything up to 9.99% to 10.99%), with the top A sitting there at 13.1%, and part #500 still at 11.1(9, maybe)%. So why, oh why, would anyone be buying a C- at 14.9%?

I think the figures for offers at par or better are the ones to follow and agree that better to buy the A+, A B at current rates. I have sold all C- and am disposing of C now, though buying property loans with the proceeds. 15% limit for C- and C needs changing, especially now that so many of the partial loans are the scraps from the table of the whole loan lenders.

Maybe, although I'm the oddball who'd rather have a 13% A bought at a premium than a 10% one bought at par. Yes, there is early repayment risk, but afaict it's fewer than 10% of loans which repay early, and even most of those are not THAT early (and if rates go up, there'll be less incentive to repay early).

Yes, but you know what you are doing.
