$25B Verizon Deal Outpaced Thu's 30Y Bond Auction

PIPELINE

Thursday highlight: Huge $25B 9pt issue from Verizon, $1B more than the US Tsy bond auction and oversubscribed too. Issue size at low end of estimate, appeared some prop/fast$ accounts had anticipated larger issuance and had sold along with hedges -- contributed to the bounce in Tsys after the 30Y Bond R/O auction tailed slightly. Verizon still holds record of largest debt launch ever at $49B total in August 2013.

No new issuance on tap for Friday as yet, total for week $57.5B
