However, Chinese junk dollar bonds are stabilizing as bets on the government easing its policy alleviate fears that property firms will default.
The notes are yielding less than 20%, down from a high of almost 25%, while China’s junk dollar market erased its November losses according to a Bloomberg index tracking the market.
On the yuan bond side, Chinese state-owned developers are gearing up to test demand through a flood of issuance. China Merchants Shekou Industrial Zone Holdings Co., Poly Developments & Holdings Group Co. and Bright Real Estate Group Co. have been cleared to sell a combined CNY8.6 billion ($1.35 billion) of local bonds on the interbank market throughout the week.
