I"ve never invested in individual bonds. Of course I've been researching, reading the basic theory, etc. I'm not here asking the smart kids to do my homework for me on the contrary this is part of my homework.
It's not that I'm asking for a recommendation, what I was hoping some of the experienced folks here would do is give their 'yes' or 'no' - -- BUT more importantly, describe how and why they came to that conclusion. For example if someone brought you a used car, asked your suggestion you'd say "Yeah, I'd buy it. Oil looks clean, brake pads not worn, all the panel paints match, accident-free history and I think you'll be ok driving it for a few years, then selling it off for reasonable value". I"m trying to learn - how you make the sausage.
Synchrony Financial. CUSIP 87165BAS2
PRICE: 96.23
Callable 7/25@100. Maturity: 6/13/25
S/P: BBB-
YTW: 6.928
My goal: Perhaps stating the obvious. 6.92 is better than my 5% VMFXX. I'd like to collect the extra 1.9% until mid 2025 and get my principle back.
Curious how someone here would look at a this investment, and what factors make you lean yes or lean no.
Thanks...............
