Aramco trades weakly despite $92bn book

Saudi Aramco’s hotly anticipated $12bn bond was priced yesterday with the fanfare investors had expected. Demand for the deal was so large that the sovereign rallied 20bp as the deal printed, but stated final orderbooks of $92bn are being questioned as two investors say only the 30 year tranche is still bid above re-offer. The leads disagree, though, with one saying he saw all the tranches above their pricing levels.
