The patterns look to SPX as it has the potential to move to test its August highs, but has resistance above it from its breakout highs which it broke below.[More...]

Daily Credit Summary: August 19 - Swiss And Sweet

Wed, 19 Aug 2009 22:17:30 GMT

Spreads widened in general today in the face of a surprisingly resilient US equity market as overnight saw more Asian angst and dollar doldrums. HY underperformed IG but both were wider as indices underperformed intrinsics and low beta underperformed high beta. Intraday ranges were wider than average in IG and HY today but both closed much nearer their wides than tights, as stocks closed at their highs. HY's resilience yesterday (following the AXL debacle) seems to have run its course with both IG and HY now wider on the week. IG and HY are both significantly wider than their Friday closes and Monday opens whereas the S&P seems modestly worse than Friday's close but considerably better than Monday's open - infer what you will. China, the dollar, and Crude were the talk of the day and the spin-meisters were out en masse to use these changes to their own evil needs. Sorry, sarcasm off for a moment.[More...]

Lear (LEA) Prepares to File For Bankruptcy

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 23:46:22 GMT

As we said a month ago in (Jun 4, 2009: Detroit's Woes Wound an Army of Suppliers) I think many people do not understand the daisy chain that is the automotive industry - there are countless suppliers of various size. They have been in a "right sizing" for a decade now, decimating the ranks (we've lost about half of them as we offshore) but there are still literally thousands out there. Lost in the "headline news" of the week (green shoots mind you) was the bankruptcy of Visteon (yes last week) - which was spun off of Ford much like Delphi (in bankruptcy[More...]

Guess The Federal Bailout, Win Money

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 17:33:00 GMT

It appears we are back to 2008 type trading; guess what the government is going to bailout next, and place your bets. The only irony in watching these stocks soar is knowing people in the supplier industry and these companies themselves and realizing what shape they are in, while their stocks surge. As we said last week, (Jun 4, 2009: Detroit's Woes Wound an Army of Suppliers) there will be a lot of fallout in the multi thousand supplier base but as with banks, it appears the government will protect the largest. And this is exactly the type of information having a bevy of friends from Goldman Sachs within government provides - you know exactly where to place your chips. Not that this type of thing ever happens. And we wonder how Goldman had only 8 losing days on their trading desk in all of first quarter 2009. (talent of course, not information flow) If you want some[More...]

AUTOS: CHANGES TO COME The auto industry is on the verge of significant changes. CHRYSLER Chrysler filed for bankruptcy as debt holders rejected an offer to take a 15% stake in the restructured company. The Treasury reached a deal earlier this week with four banks that hold the majority of Chrysler's debt in return for $2 billion in cash. However, 40 hedge funds that hold roughly 30 percent of that debt also needed to sign on for the deal to go through. The Treasury Department and the four banks tried to persuade the hedge funds to take a sweetened deal of $2.25 billion in cash. However, the deal ultimately fell through. An announcement of a merger with Fiat was made.[More...]
