One analyst said, "The corporate bond market is feeling very bad right now due to the Greek debt crisis and continued bad ratings from the ratings agencies affecting markets."
Danish shipping and oil group A.P. Moller-Maersk has postponed a planned bond issue worth up to 1 billion euros ($1.44 billion) due to poor market conditions, analysts told Reuters on Wednesday.
Maersk said last month that Barclays Capital, ING, JPMorgan Chase, Mitsubishi and Nordea would start a roadshow on May 31, but that it had not made a final decision on whether to go ahead with the bond.
Analysts said on Wednesday the issue has probably been postponed for weeks.
