Fitch Ratings today assigned the city of Long Beach a high rating, "F+1," and called the city's financial outlook "stable." The city is set to sell $56 million in notes on Wednesday.

The rating summary contains a few red flags for investors, given the city's budget gap, but also states that the city has gone to great lengths to reduce spending.
