Q: As for Kathy's question on acquiring a small CSU debenture with rights, possibly she ought to check with her broker to see IF a $200 bond could be sold. This quote is from the itrade site "Face value should be in multiples of $1,000.00 as there are no fractional bond units, except for strips where the rule in multiples of $1,000 does not apply." Also it is not possible with them to trade anything less than a $5000 corporate bond online.
Perhaps for most of us small holders of the rights the best course of action is to sell them on the open market; otherwise you might be stuck with an unmarketable security until maturity in 2040. Alternatively if you're really keen on the debentures you could purchase enough rights to get up to the minimum trading levels so you are holding something marketable. Thanks, J.
