The U.S. high-grade corporate bond market is facing a significant decline in M&A financing, reaching its lowest levels in five years due to economic uncertainty and the impact of President Trump's trade policies. Expectations for bond issuance to fund mergers have dropped sharply, complicating conditions for banks and investors, and leading to tighter credit spreads. Despite an anticipated increase in overall investment-grade bond volumes, the substantial cash reflow to investors may not meet their demand for new investments.
