Subject: RE: Kroger int rate, two notches above junk


USA

Kroger recently borrowed $1 billion. Moody rated the debt @ Baa2, two notches above junk bonds. Debt was split in three maturity time frames. Int rate of 2% due in 2016, 2.6% due in 2019, 3.5% due in 2026.

Looks pretty cheap with the type of credit rating vs loaning to a farmer @ 5% on yearly variable. With the security lender has in the farmer's assets along with crop insurance as a backstop.
