French Corporate Bond Yields
The Kobeissi Letter's bar chart drew 253.4K views on X: 1.1x its typical post and #17 of 48 The Kobeissi Letter charts we track by views. Read Oct 12, 2026.
Shocking stat of the day:
Why it spread
This post spread because it paired a hot topic that week with an independent author, reaching 200,340 views, 1,417 likes, 225 reposts, 59 quotes, and 165 saves, with a quote rate above average and source reach in the top quarter.
What worked
- The headline number is framed as a shock, turning a bond market fact into a shareable stat of the day.
- The post gives a clear before and after, moving from 14 billion dollars to 241 billion dollars, a rise of 1,621 percent.
- It adds a second striking figure, that roughly 38 percent of French high-grade corporate debt is now trading at lower yields than government bonds.
What to borrow
We could take one surprising number from our own data, show its change over a set period, and add a second figure that shows how widespread the shift is.
Careful
Do not copy the shock framing without checking that our own numbers support it, and do not read the likes, reposts, or views as proof that the underlying claim is correct.
