Overall Market Statistics

- Number of Shares Tracked. Canadian Preferred Shares is Tracking this number of preferred shares and all are used when calculating the various metrics and statistics
- Number of Companies Tracked. The total count of companies for which CPS is tracking preferred issues.

Table: Statistics by Sector
Here we group all preferreds issues by market sector and then apply the metric at this level. For this set we grouped the metrics into 3 categories
- Current Yield. Current yield offered by the shares in this sector.
- Reset Yield. Reset yield offered by the shares in this sector.
- Rate Increase. Rate increase / decrease percent to the current yield offered by shares in this sector.
The first column in each group is preceded by column “Count“. This column reflects the total number of issues included in the set.
For example in the table “Statistics By Sector” under the group column “Current” you see the banking sector has a count of 66. 66 is the number of bank issues tracked and used to determine the average “current yield average”. This set includes Perpetuals, Floating and Resets for a count of 66 issues. In the next group column “Reset” the count for the Banking sector is 53. Of the 66 bank issues, only 53 are 5 year resets, thus the set used to calculate the “Reset Average Yield” is 53.
Each set includes the following columns
- Current Average Yield. Its similar to the “Today’s Average Market Yield” Only on a smaller set.
- Maximum. Shows the Maximum yield offered for the set along the same row within the column group. It also shows which issue offers this yield. For today 2020-07-02 for the Banking sector the “Current Maximum” yield is 8.76% and is offered by issue LB-H.
