  • J.C. Penney Bonds Change Of Control A Good Thing? [View article]
    That is the only tender that I am aware off. Looks like I got some bad data from the FINRA website when entering the CUSIP. Have noticed that happens from time to time.

    Your right the tender is for the 7.125% of 2023.

    K.,

    That is a good question. I have not seen JC Penney breakout employee turnover / retention. It would be interesting to see how it compares with Herbalife, wouldn’t it?

    Thanks.

    The risk-reward profile favors the bonds in my opinion. However the bonds carry risk, but should be less risky than the equity (common stock).

    Time will tell what happens.

    There can be many factors accounting for the price movement. Terms and conditions of the bond issue. The shape of the yield curve and difference in spreads. Another factor is the size of the bonds traded.

    Hope that helps.

    Your welcome.

    I didn't notice the prospectus for the 7.95% of 2017 on the SEC site. It was issued in 1997 per FINRA. The SEC site only goes back to 2002 for JCP.

    How does DELL have a 0.0% payout ratio while paying a dividend? It appears that there is a data "issue".
