Apple trading floods bond market

MarketWatch - May 1, 2013 - By Eisen

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — The new must-have Apple accessory: its bond debt.

Demand for the technology company’slandmark $17 billion in bonds didn’t stop at issuance. The bonds traded Wednesday in high volumes with prices stuck above their offering levels.

Buying and selling of Apple (US:AAPL) bonds represented more than one in every seven trades in the high-grade corporate bond market Wednesday as of 4:30 p.m. Eastern, according to MarketAxess. Some $2.09 billion of Apple trades took place Wednesday against total trading of $13.40 billion, or 15.6% of all trades.

That number was even higher, at 23.5%, earlier Wednesday as investors looked to buy Apple debt, said Jody Lurie, corporate credit analyst at Janney Montgomery Scott.

“It’s very interesting to watch, because I can’t think of an offering that’s been so active in the morning,” she said. “Everybody wants a piece of it.”

The technology company offered six different types of bonds: fixed rates maturing in 3, 5, 10, and 30 years, as well as floating rates maturing in 3 and 5 years.

The bonds maturing further out have been more active, as the notes on the shorter end of the yield curve tended to get bought by investors who want to hold on to the debt, said Richard Saperstein, managing director at Treasury Partners at HighTower.
