The Mayor went so far as to hire bankruptcy council to advise the city on the process. If you need a refresher on this northeast bond drama, read my post on Seeking Alpha from May of 2017. Mayor Bronin’s dramatic move (and in my opinion, a reckless and unnecessary move) sent the price of Hartford General Obligation bonds crashing, for example, Hartford G.O. 5’s of 2027.

It may have been political theater, but for investors looking for liquidity in the face of media articles about Hartford’s impending financial implosion, the price hit was about 30% of face amount on their holdings.
