By Toni Weeks
San Diego, Feb. 1 - HSBC Bank USA, NA plans to price annual income opportunity CDs with auto cap due March 1, 2017 linked to a basket of ten stocks, according to a pricing sheet.
The basket includes the common stocks of Dow Chemical Co., Eli Lilly and Co., Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc., Goldcorp, Inc., Kraft Foods Inc., McDonald's Corp., Paychex, Inc., Raytheon Co., Reynolds American Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc.
Interest is payable annually and will equal the average of the performances of the basket stocks, subject to a floor of zero.
