No floor in sight for high yield loan CDOs

CDO tightening has by no means been limited to SF CDOs. High yield loan deals have seen remarkable reception. Talk on the triple-As for David L. Babson's pending HYL CLO was revised from Libor plus 40 to Libor plus 37 to 38. Morgan Stanley is underwriting the transaction.
