GGP Prepays

In 2009, the market was so idiotic about extension risk that it priced current and next pay bonds with teen yields. The pendulum has swung fully the other direction in that part of the curve. As Citi noted on Friday, 6 GGP properties are very likely to refinance, and every one of the related front-pay bonds is not only pricing above par but also has a negative yield (as bad as -12.57%) if the loans prepay as is expected.

They also highlighted the "special consideration properties" that GGP has listed that are in CMBS deals where they intend to throw the keys back. The 2 in red have been transferred back to the lenders (they have stated that they have already thrown back the keys on 3 others).

Wheeler was a fine analyst and had big boots to fill, but I have to say that Jeffrey Berenbaum's new team is really doing a good job with this kind of analysis.
