arbitrage opportunity
current bonds 12% yield
new bonds 6.5% yield
Bonds Detail
even a struggling company tries really hard to buy back bonds when their own bonds have 25% yield. SCTY did not!
why not?
What's the arbitrage opportunity? How does a trader use this fact to make an arb trade?
Oh, and Solarcity isn't and has never paid 25% yield. The bonds you are talking about were issued with low yield, like 1.5%. That is what Solarcity is paying on them. However, people have been selling these bonds at below par value, making their current yield higher, but that has nothing to do with Solarcity directly.
