Plenty of investment - grade credit
bonds suspended
coupon payments in the Depression, transiting directly from A to D rating
without even making a pit stop at a C junk rating.
This is why the 2007 statement I received showed a 4 % return, whereas if I actually look at the
coupon rates for the
bonds, found in the Prospectus, CST is in the 5 - 7 % range, and that is
without all the top - ups.
