FAQ

Why Neutral?

Despite a sizable bond remarketing, the overall market conditions are stable. Historically, similar bond actions didn't significantly affect stock prices.

How important is it?

The bond remarketing can affect liquidity and financing flexibility but lacks immediate market impact. Investor reactions depend on the execution success which is uncertain.

Why Short Term?

The bond remarketing is immediate, impacting liquidity but stabilizing over time. Previous bond pricing changes often led to swift market reactions, then normalization.
