RE:Rio Capital RaiseI'm curious what some of the financial types who participate here on this board might think of this bond sale. I have a narrow view of this type of transaction - it means one of two things (1) RIO believes interest rates will continue to rise, or at least won't drop much, so better raise capital at these rates, and/or (2) RIO believes they can generate a better return than the coupon % they pay the bond holders over the life of the notes. The compnay generates tons of cash and $1.75B isn't much to them - their market cap fluctuates by $2B or more on many trading days. Any ideas why they might issue bonds like this, when they already have a lot of cash?
