How to buy MBS ?

C

comintel

How can I buy mortgage backed securities such as
Popular ABS Mortgage Pass-through Trust 2005-A

or

GSAA Home Equity Trust 2007-A AF-3 A-3,

or alternatively,

a fund that holds AAA or close to AAA sub-prime mortgages securities such as these.

I cannot find them listed at Interactive Brokers, for example.


Thanks

Good point - I amended my post to say "AAA or close to AAA".

These particular ones were recommended in a prominent Fixed-Income newsletter.

Very very helpful - thanks a lot!

I think I may like the Helios and PCM funds (subject to evaluation) because their price history best correlates with Markit ABX AAA graph (straight down) shown at

suggesting that they are holding this type of security.

I am also interested in emerging market debt and it looks as if this site will help me there too.
