Linn Energy, LLC is a Houston, TX based exploration and production limited liability company engaged in the development, production, acquisition, and exploitation of long life crude oil and natural gas properties in the United States. The company issued debt to raise capital for its ventures, including the Linn Energy, LLC 6.5% 9/15/2021 bonds.  As of this writing, Linn Energy, LLC 6.5% 9/15/2021 bonds, CUSIP 536022AL0 are trading at $76.697.  The issue is rated B1/B/— by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s.

High-yield bonds—also called non-investment-grade bonds, speculative-grade bonds, or junk bonds—are bonds that are rated below investment grade, typically ‘BB’ or lower by Standard & Poor’s and ‘Ba’ or lower by Moody’s. They pay high yields to bondholders because the borrowers credit ratings are less than pristine, making it difficult for them to acquire capital at an inexpensive cost. Junk bonds carry an above average risk that the issuer will default on the bond. The increased risk makes them arguably unsuitable for many investors.

This risk has come in to focus recently as oil prices have plummeted, causing the risk of default of the Linn Energy, LLC 6.5% 9/15/2021 bonds to rise.

Brokerage-firms and investment adviser are required to make investment recommendations that are suitable for their clients in light of their clients particular investment situation – net worth, investment objectives, income, and investment experience.  Brokerage firms or advisors who sell junk bonds to unsuitable investors or fail to adequately disclose the risks of the investments can be held accountable for losses suffered through a FINRA arbitration claim.
