BONDS:

You know, when a bond sells in the low single digits, that represents a point of view that is amazingly pessismistic.

It suggests, of course, that there is NO HOPE of recovery based upon what the bondholder knows. Much more typical is something in the range of 40-50%, as far as I know.

I guess I am curious as to what the bondholders know, that I don't know.

Namaste!

Jim
