  • Score 5.5% Yields With Short-Term Caterpillar Bonds In Russian Rubles [View article]
    Thank you for your question. Similar maturity CAT bonds in U.S. dollars appear to be offering about 0.4% yields, and similar maturity U.S. Treasuries appear to be offering only about 0.3%. So, perhaps an equally puzzling question to ask is why so many investors evidently consider similar maturity bonds denominated in U.S. dollars a good buy, which are likewise indicating a negative real yield (of at least negative 1%, and perhaps much greater than 1% depending on what measurement of inflation here in the U.S. is believed or taken as being real.) Given its higher yield, this bond may perform significantly better than its US dollar counterpart. Again, we see diversification away from the dollar and into various foreign denominated bonds as a logical and sound means of reducing risk against the persistant errosion of one's wealth resulting from a devaluation of the dollar when measured against other global currencies.

  • Float Your Boat With Hapag-Lloyd Yankee Bonds Yielding 7.84% [View article]
    Thanks for your questions

    1. If you did business with EXM or any other shipper, and were afraid of their bankruptcy, would you consider moving to a new vendor? I sure would. I would hate to have any of my products held up by the courts.

    2.. Less competition often equal better margins.

    Thanks again

  • Extract 12% With Brigus Gold Convertibles, Maturing In March 2016 [View article]
    Thank you for your interest. By looking through or behind what is sometimes perceived as the "institutional" curtain, we have been able to find higher yields for our retail clients. It is not unusual that some of our investment ideas take much more work to research and acquire than more common "mainstream bonds," but we believe this additional effort is the best way to achieve higher returns while lowering the risks. We see this as an integral part of our fiduciary duty as a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA), and the bonds that we research and write about are individually held by retail clients in their individual brokerage accounts. If you have any additional questions about our research and/or our services as a very low "fee only" advisor to assist you or other retail clients in finding and acquiring bonds such as this, please email us at info@durig.com, or call us toll free at 877-359-5319, or visit one of our websites at the links below where you can sign up for our free weekly newsletter.

    Thank you for your comment. Linear Gold was actually considered an acquisition (in 2010), but the share consolidation and name change to Brigus was in connection with this. For the latest updates to Brigus and for other high yield investment ideas, please visit our website (below) and/or request our free email newsletter.

  • 7.4% Yields With Ferrexpo USD (Yankee) Bonds, B+/B2/B Rated, Matures April 2016 [View article]
    Thank you for your question.

    Yes we beleive for years that small bond investors have NOT been able to buy the often much higher yielding global bonds, you and the other posters helped site several of the reasons above.

    That is major reason why we started offering our services. We are both able to, and for example on this issue, helped small investors with as little as a $10,000 investment get these much higher yielding, global institutional bonds. This effort has greatly expanding the clients reach, diversity and of course income.. It has worked extremely well give our clients better income with shorter maturity certain dates plus we have been very good at reducing, or better yet, histrionically we have never had a defaulting bond. .

    If you have more question please just give us a call 971-732-5119

  • Snag 8% Cash Flow In Swiss Francs With SRLEV Floating Rate Notes [View article]
    We have not seen taxes withheld on the interest (coupon) payments for this bond, but I don't know if this is always true for every custodian. As you might already know, many countries have tax treaties in place to accomodate U.S. investors. Pricing for this SRLEV bond appears to be recovering rather quickly, making it difficult to price. Please feel free to contact us anytime through our website (below) contact information for more up to date information.

  • Snag 8% Cash Flow In Swiss Francs With SRLEV Floating Rate Notes [View article]
    Thank you for your comments, Steven. While it is true that we do work very hard to find higher yields in debt instruments that are often missed or more difficult to obtain than the average bond, we are also very successful in acquiring these. Aside from having access to the institutional side of the bond desk, we occasionally trade away from the custodian's proprietary bond desk to achieve better availability or better pricing. Furthermore, being able to allocate a larger block purchase into smaller sized pieces adds another significant advantage that, as advisor for an account, we are able to do as a part of our very low fee service. For more information, please visit one of our websites (below) and/or email us.

    Actually, it's 16.78 cents per ADR share, and no "swiped back" portion. As stated previously, there's a lot of bad information being posted.

    With the credit rating experience you say you have, then you should know how easy it is for a "first glance" to miss the mark. Furthermore, I'm probably not alone in my belief that credit rating agencies don't always get it right. Perhaps this is (another) one of those times that actually having the advantage of running (several) business inspires us here at Durig Capital to look at the details of what makes a young or growing company successful a little differently than many without this kind of experience. In any event, our review was written for our clients prior to Q3 numbers, good numbers which further confirmed our opinion of the direction for this company.
