Re: Interesting Bond issues
It is actually a double whammy for reit, price drop , yield(dpu) also drop. For Bond, only drop price during rising interest rates. As long as one hold to maturity, no lost in principle.

Re: Interesting Bond issues
Note: Perpetual bonds or preference shares can be risky if they are not from your local banks or super good local blue-chips.
Five out of the seven listed Chinese companies that have sold perpetuals this year had negative cash flow in 2013, Bloomberg-compiled data show. If perpetuals were to help companies access funds at lower costs, that would be a good reason to use them, according to Franklin Templeton’s Cryer. Issuing them to manage debt ratios would be the “wrong reason,” he said.
“My concern is that more companies fall into the latter category rather than the former,” Cryer said.

Liquidity rules to lift Singapore bonds
New liquidity requirements for banks in Singapore are set to drive demand for high-rated corporate and mortgage-backed bonds after the city’s regulator widened its definition of liquid assets.
From January 1, the city’s biggest banks must hold enough liquid Singapore dollar assets, including cash and government bonds, to fund a month of local currency liabilities. Foreign banks and smaller local lenders will need to meet the requirement a year later.

some thoughts: unless the stock market big crash or US interest rates big cheong in 2015, looks like it is difficult to buy 4-5% new bonds from our 3 local banks
