June 13, 2013 The Bond Buyer's 20-Bond Index® continued heading for higher ground, jumping 23 basis points to end at 4.16. This surprising rise in the Index was foreshadowed earlier in the week by the market's grudging acceptance of new bond issues. That lead traders to get stingy with their bids in the secondary market. |
