LPO (US.JEF) In centrul scandalului First Brands

Prabusirea neasteptata a companiei americane de piese auto First Brands Group, care nu poate justifica peste 2 mld. USD din fondurile investitorilor, a atras atentia asupra bancii de investitii Jefferies, implicata atat prin divizia sa de investment banking, cat si prin cea de asset management. Jefferies a ajutat compania sa refinanteze credite corporative, prezentand un nivel al datoriei de 5.9 mld. USD, desi ulterior s-a dovedit ca depasea 11.6 mld. USD. Actiunile Jefferies au scazut cu aproape 30%, iar autoritatile investigheaza relatia sa cu First Brands si posibilele nereguli contabile legate de finantari off-balance-sheet. (Sursa: finance)

&nbsp The week ahead will bring to an end the second quarter and the first half of what has been a challenging 2022 for investors. Several key economic reports, including core PCE inflation – the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of consumer prices – are on tap, along with earnings from Nike (US.NKE), Jefferies (US.JEF), Micron Technology (US.MU), and Bed Bath &amp Beyond (US.BBBY).&nbsp

The benchmark index still remains on pace for one its worst opening six months since 1970. Only five times since 1932 has the S&amp P 500 lost 15% or more in the first six months of a year through Friday's close, the benchmark index was down just under 18%.&nbsp

&nbsp Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expect PCE to rise 0.7% in May compared to 0.2% the prior month. On a year-over-year basis, the PCE deflator is expected to accelerate 6.4%, up from a climb of 6.3% in April.
