what happened
New corporate bond supply may remain limited because of elevated volatility in sovereign bond markets, Juan Valencia of Societe Generale says in a note. He also points to the corporate blackout period as a factor that could constrain credit issuance.
If the sovereign bond market settles, however, companies could bring substantial volumes despite the blackout restrictions. Valencia says issuers may seek to make up for time lost over the past fortnight, potentially releasing some of the delayed supply once market conditions improve.
why it matters
For credit markets, the note points to a possible near-term postponement of new bond deals rather than a disappearance of issuance plans. A calmer sovereign market could allow companies to return quickly and compensate for the activity missed during the previous two weeks.
