Abstract
⺠We calculate price differentials between UK gilts and equivalent packages of strips. ⺠There are apparent arbitrage opportunities allowing for bid-ask spreads. ⺠Strip packages are overpriced more often than gilts are overpriced. ⺠Strips prices are stale compared with gilts prices. ⺠Overpriced strips might arise partly because of difficulties in short-selling strips.
