[Jefferies Says Corporate Bonds Show Resilience, Widening Yield Spreads May Attract New Buyers] ⑴ Mohit Kumar of Jefferies stated in a report that corporate bonds have shown relative resilience amid recent market volatility. ⑵ The global economist noted that yield spreads widened on Thursday, but the rebound in the interest rate market helped investors focus on total yields. ⑶ He indicated that further widening of yield spreads could attract new buyers. ⑷ Kumar stated that he is not excited about the current level of yield spreads; in fact, he welcomes a widening of yield spreads. ⑸ Kumar stated that client feedback indicates most investors are waiting for a moderate widening of yield spreads as a buying opportunity. ⑹ Jefferies' view remains that there is ample liquidity and cash available off-exchange, which can continue to support corporate bonds.
