Muni Lowdown: Up in smoke

from The Muni Lowdown

Debtwire Municipals reporter Patrick Ferguson looks at a pair of bills in the North Carolina and South Carolina state legislatures could fundamentally change the states’ electricity markets. Debtwire's Maria Amante discusses in a market hungry for paper and yield, how the USD 5.23bn refinancing of the Buckeye Tobacco Settlement Financing Authority’s debt is an opportunity to satisfy those cravings. Finally, DC-based Debtwire’s Chuck Stanley looks at the Ports of Los Angeles (POLA) and Long Beach (POLB) and how they are showing indications of significant declines in freight volume, as the effects of the coronavirus outbreak in China add to mounting headwinds at the two San Pedro Bay facilities. Yong Lim, the Debtwire Municipals desk editor, is the moderator of the podcast. The Muni Lowdown is a weekly podcast recapping the previous week's significant news developments in the municipal bond market. For comments or questions contact [email protected]
