Why this matters
Bonds carries pricing or financing terms rather than a structural change on its face. If it sets out a yield, a spread or a financing cost, the figure worth having is the net one: after issuer fees, redemption friction, and the credit behind the collateral. A headline number without those deductions is not a return, and this brief does not treat it as one.
Evidence boundary
On Bonds, the scope is limited to what the linked 2 reports state, and where they diverge both positions are recorded without either being picked in advance; the headline figure is what to check first.
What to verify
Read Bonds for any figure it actually states, net of issuer fees and redemption friction where those apply, alongside the credit standing of whatever collateral is named.
