India Company Yields Set to Rise Most Since 2022 on Fiscal Risks

Bloomberg7 hours ago
Borrowing costs for Indian companies are set to climb at the fastest pace in more than two years, as concerns mount that the government's tax cuts may result in higher borrowing and squeeze out issuers.
The average yield on top-rated three year company notes climbed 26 basis points in two days through Tuesday, set for the steepest weekly gain since November 2022, data compiled by Bloomberg show. Yield eased slightly on Wednesday, slipping about two basis points amid thin volumes in the secondary market, traders said. Meanwhile, the 10-year bond yield has risen 11 basis points this week to 7.29%, the highest since March.

Why Taiwan Semiconductor Stock Tumbled Today

Key Points The U.S. government wants to take a 10% stake in Intel. It also wants to convert the free grant money that it already promised Intel into payment for Intel shares. The government may do the same thing to TSMC. 10 stocks we like better than Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing › Contract semiconductor manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) stock slid 2.2% through 12:22 p.m. ET Wednesday. Why? As you may have heard by now, President Trump is planning to take an equity stake in Intel (NASDAQ: INTC). All the cool kids are doing it Following passage of the Biden administration's CHIPS Act supporting the U.S. semiconductor industry, Intel was awarded $10.9 billion in grants. But as Bloomberg reports, the Trump White House is now negotiating with Intel to convert those grants into a 10% stake in Intel stock. But Intel wasn't alone in winning CHIPS Act grants. As CNBC points out, Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC) was awarded $6.6 billion in U.S. government semiconductor subsidies. And now it seems U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick may want to convert that grant into an equity stake as well. What does this mean for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stock? That's the question investors are pondering today: What does this mean for TSMC? If Commerce converts its $6.6 billion grant into a $6.6 billion investment in TSMC stock, it will effectively remove $6.6 billion in "free money" from TSMC's balance sheet. But TSMC would still get to keep the $6.6 billion -- in exchange for handing shares over to the government. It might also be better positioned to win further government subsidies. But what if the rumors prove false? What if the government invests only in Intel, and not in TSMC? That would seem to give the government a big incentive to make sure Intel "wins" the semiconductor market, perhaps at TSMC's expense. This is bad news for TSMC.
