New York, May 23 – Allegheny Technologies Inc.’s 4.75% convertibles continued to improve early Monday, extending gains from Friday after the bond put in a weak debut in the convertibles market on Thursday.
Allegheny’s 4.75% convertibles lifted above par, trading at 101.5 last, which was better on the day by 2.5 points, according to Trace data. Allegheny shares were also up, trading higher by 50 cents, or 4.6%, at $11.75 last. On their debut on Thursday, the bonds went out at 98.5 to 99 with shares at $11.25.
