Bond supply is testing dealer balance sheets before it tests demand

The mechanism runs through inventory capacity: when dealers cannot warehouse new debt, issuers pay more to clear it.

Credit

Borrowers that need continuous access to new debt face pressure sooner than companies funded through longer-term loans.

Liquidity
