Yes it is amazing that it really squeezed through 0.99 and reached 1s... there were about 15M shares offered and traded through at that price alone. I hardly believed that it goes through it, given that it failed at $1 on the day it filed...but... so be it.

hard to tell what people believe; but the CDS auction may be a turning point. GM $1 puts, good for just 10 days trade at 30c with the stock over 1.

Trying to connect some dots: as it appears, Chrysler is a lost case if the sale to fiat falls through; high court blocked the sale. This is a clear positive for GM. Perhaps Chrysler gets completely undone in the process; to eliminate capacity as earlier suggested.

High court blocks Chrysler sale to Fiat
Justice Ginsburg delays Chrysler sale to Fiat
On Monday June 8, 2009, 4:18 pm EDT
Buzz up! Print

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has temporarily delayed Chrysler's sale to Fiat.

Ginsburg says in an order Monday that the sale is "stayed pending further order."

The action indicates that the delay may only be temporary.

Chrysler has said a delay could scuttle the deal.

A federal appeals court in New York had earlier approved the sale, but gave opponents until 4 p.m. EDT Monday to try to get the Supreme Court to intervene.

Ginsburg issued her order just before 4 p.m., when Chrysler would have been free to complete the sale of most of its assets to Fiat.

Ginsburg could decide on her own whether to extend the delay or ask the full court to decide. It is unclear when she or the court will act.

Pre-CDS auction sightings:

Stock dropped a little bit in Europe; yesterday people got nervous and also sold the bond dreck downto $1 and $0.60 (4% or 2.4% of notional value). Bonds are, well bid, offered at 2.4% / 20%; but with most trading at 12%,

place your bets!

my CDS results bet is 9.25% (+ / - 0.75%)

THe CDS business must be very small, actually. 335MM is a pittance compared to the outstanding debt of the company. Perhaps, a lot of contracts have been torn up already.

R.H. Donnelley CDS worth 4.875 pct in auction
NEW YORK, June 11 (Reuters) - Credit default swaps insuring the debt of yellow-pages publisher R.H. Donnelley Corp recovered 4.875 percent in an auction held on Thursday to determine the contracts' value, said auction administrators Markit and Creditex.

That means that sellers of protection on the company's debt will need to pay buyers 95.125 percent of the amount of protection sold, or $9.51 million per $10 million of insurance.

Payments on R.H. Donnelley's CDS were triggered after the company missed an interest payment on its debt in April, and failed to make the payment within its 30-day grace period.

The company filed for bankruptcy protection on May 29. Net volumes of around $335 million are outstanding in CDS on R.H. Donnelley's debt, according to the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp.
