Foire aux questions
What is bond yield?
Bond yield is the return you earn from a bond investment. Current yield is annual coupon divided by price; YTM accounts for all future cash flows.
Why does yield go up when price goes down?
Bond prices and yields move inversely. When you pay less for a bond, the fixed coupon payments represent a higher percentage return.
What's a good bond yield?
A 'good' yield depends on risk, maturity, and current interest rates. Higher yields often mean higher risk.
