Junk funds up again today as I expected. Spreads widened slightly -- but this was more than offset by the sharp drop in treasury yields. Good time to own a hunk of junk.

I think that is probably just what it says on the face of it -- with cheap hydropower the plant itself is the problem ... interest rates have nothing to do with that.

Now for other smelters -- rise in price of Al doesn't offset increased cost of electrical energy (big part of production costs) -- if you see nat gas with sustained prices above 5 in the next couple of years, you are gonna see more N.A. Al smelters shut down.
