A notice is published stating that RMO 5% convertible preferred stock will be called at $60 per share. The preferred is converti
dybincka [34]

Answer: d. A price near $60

Explanation:

The Preferred Stock was selling at $56 then a notice was circulated that RMO would be calling the stock at a price of $60.

This $60 is more than the current $56 and so this will need to reflect in the price of the stock. The adjustment will cause the Preferred stock to start trading near $60 as traders will seek to take advantage of the impending call by buying at a lower price and thus making a bit of profit when the stock is called at $60. The market will adjust to this because the Preferred stock will be perceived as undervalued. A price closer to the Call price will therefore become the new price to properly value the stock.
