Barron's Stocks With Troubled Pension Plans

Description:

With the stock-market rout decimating corporate pension assets this year, some of America's largest companies may need to funnel additional money into sponsored retirement plans, potentially trimming next year's reported profits. Companies in the Standard & Poor's 500 collectively face a pension deficit of at least $200 billion, according to a Credit Suisse analysis. That's the largest shortfall since 2002, when pension liabilities exceeded assets by a record-setting $218 billion in the aftermath of the dot-com bust.
