SpaceX 2056 Bonds Widen 0.28 Point in Secondary Trading, Deepening Losses

3 articles · Updated · Bloomberg · Jun 26

Summary

  • SpaceX’s newly issued 2056 bonds were quoted as much as 0.28 percentage point wider than their sale level, pushing losses deeper for investors who bought the deal.
  • One large dealer showed the bonds at about 2.03 percentage points above Treasuries, versus the 1.75-point spread at issuance, according to people familiar with the over-the-counter market.
  • Traders said the move was unusually sharp for a recent bond sale, with some saying they could not recall another new issue that weakened this quickly after pricing.
  • The slide hits a blockbuster SpaceX debt offering that had entered the market with strong attention, but is now drawing scrutiny for the speed of its secondary-market deterioration.
