Curious what the experienced members of WSO are following in the world of restructuring. I’m joining a group next summer and am wondering what literature/topics of trends/situation you guys find most interesting at the moment.

Serta-type uptiering transactions are big right now. Serta started it and showed the world itwas possible, now TriMark did it and Boardriders is trying as well.
If you don’t already subscribe to the re-org podcast. Reorg itself is expensive (like most RX materials) but the podcast is one of their marketing materials.
Also the WSJ’s RX section has some free articles. It’s in their pro subscription which is a significantly larger investment than just the mainstream journal.
Finally, DebtWire’s podcast is also great.
Some things I’m following: Simon Property Group and SPARC holdings moves (Brooks Brothers, JCP, Lucky), Hertz, McDermott, Government and the airlines other industry support, WireCard, AirBnB etc.
Finally, you can pull legal documents online from the bankruptcy courts as well
TL;DR life is all about the J-Crew trapdoor
You can get a free debtwire/reorg trial. Then raid it for some of their analysis/case studies of certain firms. Good way to prep.
Can you elaborate on this? I tried reaching out to both places for a free trial and I was unable to because they identified me as a student using my edu address.
Check out Petition- newsletter/website that posts about recent events in the RX world. Theres free access and also paid which includes premium access
Do you have any experience with premium? Is it cost effect relative to other publications?
I have the premium newsletter and it is definitely worth the money if you are interested in the industry. The premium newsletter are quite a bit longer and indept compared to the free. I am not sure if there are any free (or better) options.
