Spread Analyzer

How much a bond pays over the risk-free curve, measured four ways: against Treasury yields, swap rates, the whole Treasury zero curve, and, for a callable bond, after taking out the value of the call.

Learning focus: why the four spreads differ and when each one is the right measure.

Swap rates (%)

Sample SOFR swap rates, not market data: there is no free source. Replace them with current quotes.

%

The tree is calibrated to the Treasury curve as in B6; each call is exercisable on its date at its price plus accrued interest.
