Advice or reading materials prior to Credit Research role

Going to be moving from a corporate finance role over to a high yield credit research role in the next month or so. Just wanted to see if anyone had any advice or suggested reading materials before I start. Through my current role I have access to a lot of equity research, so I was thinking of pulling primers on the sectors I’m going to cover and reading those.

Obviously depends on the sector that you are going to be covering but I read Moyer Debt Analysis and it gave a pretty comprehensive of the distressed markets, bankruptcy, etc. I can shoot you a free pdf version if you want. Just pm me.
