Corporate bond markets just hit a milestone that hadn't been seen since the pandemic era. In a single week, US corporate bond issuance climbed to $95 billion—the busiest stretch in years. What does this actually mean? When companies are flooding the market with bond sales like this, it usually signals confidence. They're raising capital, betting on growth ahead. The last time we saw activity at this level was during the Covid recovery phase. It's worth watching how this connects to credit cycles and what it tells us about corporate health and market liquidity conditions overall.
