To get an interview: Please contact any of the Canaccord strategists directly at the numbers and emails provided below, or contact Garrett Allen at garrett.drellc(at)gmail(dot)com or 215-514-9207 for assistance in arranging an interview with any fixed income strategist. The headline everyone is anticipating: TXU to file Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Total debt $40 billion. Will be one of -- or the largest bankruptcy -- in history of America depending on how you classify GM, with or without GMAC Finance arm. Big issue news this week: Bombardier selling $1.8 billion in a two-part offering. Also: Brazilian-based beef/pork processor JBS looking to do a benchmark size deal US dollar funding. They have some US $10 billion in debt outstanding; $500 million loan outstanding maturing this year. They have been aggressive in acquisitions, notably Pilgrim's Pride. We expect spreads to trend higher after last week's sell off in high yield market; although they have been trading range bound (within a point and a half) over the past few weeks, that is masking some decidedly high periods of volatility, such as hard opens (down a point, eg). Watershed event: High yield outflows late last week, first time in two months - possibly due to month end selling. Canaccord is positive on Toys R Us news (earnings announced last week).
