But take a look at the accompanying graph. It shows the price of asset-backed securities (as measured by the ABX index) for the 2007 vintage.

What is the usage of 'vintage' here?

Hi,

What is the usage of 'vintage' here?

'Vintage' often refers to 'wine produced in a particular year'. By extension, it can be used to mean 'items produced or associated with a particular year or period'.

Best wishes, Clive
