“Derivatives that helped inflate the 2007 credit bubble are being remade for a new generation. JPMorgan Chase & Co. is offering a swap contract tied to a speculative-grade loan index that makes it easier for investors to wager on the debt. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. is planning as much as 10 billion euros ($13.4 billion) of structured investments that bundle debt into top-rated securities, while ProShares last week started offering exchange-traded funds backed by credit-default swaps on company debt. The instruments are springing back to life as investors seek new ways to boost returns that are being suppressed by central bank stimulus.”
