What it is

The extra interest solid, well-rated companies pay over the Treasury. It moves less than the high-yield spread; when it rises too, stress reaches the best borrowers. Option-adjusted spread of US investment-grade corporate bonds. Part of the theme "Backdrop for stocks": How macro conditions bear on stock investors: whether bonds hedge, what the market expects from the Fed, appetite for growth and bank credit.

How to read it

It is context: its position against its history is shown, but it carries no colour and does not count in the traffic light.
