NOTES:
Best bid: The highest price that a buyer is willing to pay for a security.
Best offer: The lowest price at which a seller is offering to sell securities.
TERM OF THE WEEK
Bond Washing: Selling a bond cum dividend and then repurchasing it ex dividend in order to convert the coupon element of the bond’s price into a capital gain, rather than receiving the coupon income.
In the UK, it does not affect the investor’s tax liability, because the gain on sale due to the interest accrual in the bond’s price is taxed as income.
