Apple issued bonds again after a two-year hiatus, attracting strong buying interest. Sources said that Apple's bond issuance attracted $10 billion in subscription orders.

Apple issued bonds worth $4.5 billion on Monday, marking its first bond issuance in two years. The company plans to use the funds to buy back shares and repay outstanding debts. The bond offering includes $1.5 billion in three-year bonds, as well as $1 billion each in five-year, seven-year, and ten-year bonds. Apple has $8 billion in debt maturing between May and November. Many companies had originally planned to issue bonds earlier, but uncertainty around Trump's policies disrupted those plans. The bond issuer is rushing to go public before the Fed meeting this week, in order to avoid the volatility that typically follows comments from the Fed chair. Analysts say that uncertainty is prompting investors to put their money into higher-rated bonds as a hedge, and demand is expected to remain strong. A source familiar with the matter said that the new bond subscription orders far exceeded Apple's target amount, with a total of $10 billion in orders.
