Levi Strauss pulls $350m junk offering

US clothes maker Levi Strauss has postponed its $350m (€418.3m) junk bond offering, after deciding not to give into investors' yield demands.

In a statement after the close of trading Tuesday, the company said it had postponed the issue because of &quotadverse market conditions, which have significantly worsened in the past two weeks&quot. Ballooning yields had made the market too expensive.
