Talen rebounds; PBF paper higher; energy up in thin trading; Peabody, Transocean quiet
By Cristal Cody
Tupelo, Miss., Aug. 23 – Talen Energy Supply LLC’s bonds were on the mend on Monday after sinking about 10 points in the prior week following a downgrade by S&P Global Ratings.
“It felt like a little bit of short covering,” a source said. “There was some talk there might be new money needed in the name – that spooked people last week, but today, commodities were red hot.”
Talen’s 10½% senior notes due 2026 (B3/CCC/B-) picked up 2 points to trade at just under 45 bid.
PBF Holding Co. LLC’s paper has “been under pressure for the last couple of weeks” but was seen as much as 3 points better on Monday in a handful of trades, a source said.
PBF’s 9¼% senior secured notes due 2025 (Ba3/BB/BB) headed out 1¾ points better at 91½ bid.
Energy bonds improved as equities gained and oil prices climbed more than $3 in the risk-on session, but trading was thin.
“There just weren’t many offers,” a source said.
Peabody Energy Corp.’s paper was quiet on Monday while the coal miner’s stock jumped 8.77%.
Peabody’s 6 3/8% senior secured notes due 2025 (Caa1/D) were last seen Friday about 2½ points softer at 74 bid.
Transocean Inc.’s 7½% notes due 2026 (Ca/CCC+) were active Friday in thin trading at the 69 bid area.
