That last trade (1000 @ .01)was likely from someone that had no idea how bonds trade and their broker got a nice commission by selling them essentially nothing for their money.


If you look at historical trades on the issues, you will see that someone over a year ago was paying quite a bit for them, and it certainly wouldn't surprise me if it was the FDIC buying them.

Check out these trades from Sept and Oct of 2008 after the receivership and filing for bankruptcy on some of the WMB sub notes (juniors)
