Energy bonds rallied dramatically vs. other sectors and remain a focus for market participants. This year through July 30, energy was the third-most actively traded sector, after financials and consumer discretionary, according to data compiled on the Trace Market Flow (TFLO) function.
The Federal Reserve’s controversial tolerance of “transitory” inflation hasn’t dented the appetite for corporate debt.

If you’ve been wondering whether energy bond spreads can tighten further, use Bloomberg analytical workflows to gain some insight.
