Dear All,I am not sure this question qualifies for this group. But I am
using R for handling this project therefore posting. Sorry if I should not
have.In a paper by Christopher, Ferson and Schadt, 1998 (Conditioning
Manager Alphas on Economic Information: Another Look at the Persistence of
Performance), they compute default premium by taking yield spread of AAA and
BAA bonds. I am trying to do a similar study but have only AAA bonds and
Government Securities yield spreads available. No data on BAA
available. Question: Can Spread (AAA-Government Bonds) be used to measure
default premium in place of Spread (BAA-AAA) ?I will be immensely obliged
for help. Regards,Pankaj K Agarwal
