Daily Brady Bond Trading Commentary

Mexico increased its 10-year issue size to Euro 1.0 billion as the country's dollar-denominated debt continued its very strong performance. European accounts were anxious to grab Mexican paper at 210 bps over bunds, with the prospect of a Moody's upgrade within the next two months. The oil market remains hot as well, and discussions among oil ministers about production increases and a $25/bbl target has hardly been enough to stem the rally. Mexican Bradys have room to outperform globals on a spread basis, especially as value recovery rights become increasingly in-the-money, assuming the market can overcome chronic problems with settling the warrants.
