Bond continuous call option?
if a bond has a continuous call option could the bond issuer just call it like 1 day before the coupon payment is due to avoid paying the coupon. thanks
So they pay the coupon when they call right?

No they pay the accrued interest. For instance on a $1000 bond with an annual 6% coupon (1/2% per month) if they call the bond at par 10 months through the year then the company pays the bondholders $1000 + 10*0.005*1000 = $1050 per bond.

When an issuer calls its bonds, it pays investors the call price together with accrued interest to date and, at that point, stops making interest payments.
Since they usually have to pay the accrued interest this will not be advantageous.
