p*****o 发帖数: 1285 | 2 I was browsering the secondary bond market and found something I didn't
understand. Can someone help me with this?
There is a BAC bond with 6.7 coupon paid semi-annually. It matures on 3/15/
2011. My understanding is that on 3/15/2011, for each bond purchased one
can get 103.35 back ($100 principle and the last coupon of $3.35). However,
the ask price for this bond is only 100.496. That is, about 3% return in
one month, or a 30% yield. This cannot be true, but what's wrong? |

"Why is there a purchase limit on savings bonds?
The purpose of the savings bonds program is to provide individuals with a
way to save or invest relatively small amounts of money in non-marketable
Treasury securities. Individuals with saving or investment needs in excess
of the savings bond purchase limit who desire the safety and stability of
Treasury securities may purchase marketable Treasury securities (bills,

The idea is to enjoy the higher yields from long-term bonds yet always
have some bond mature soon so not lose liquidity. It pretty much assumes
that you'll hold all bonds to maturity.

y****i 发帖数: 778 | 7 Yes. However, you will lose money if the bond market is going down and your
bond funds realize the capital loss at the same time. For individual bond
investors, they can always choose to buy and hold until maturity, and thus
never lose money as long as the bond does not default. |

y****i 发帖数: 778 | 11 You are buying a new issue bond which has no transaction fee but the final
yield may be slightly different with the yield shown. For >95% chance, it is
the same as expected yield. Some time it can be little bit lower but
usually very small, like 0.05% or less for 10 year bond. Yes, you buy a
premium bond which has lower yield than coupon. The true return is the yield
not the coupon because bond pay you face value $100 only in the end. |

里面有个图,可看出不同类型的Bond fund对美联储利率调整的敏感度是不同的。国债
的敏感度很高,而公司债敏感度不高,但公司债对经济的敏感度较高。
另外里面也提到PONDX,跌得没那两狠是因为PONDX里面国债比例不高,而是有很多
mortgages and EM bond debt,后者对利率敏感度相对较低。
同时文章也提到有研究表明,利率上升会导致国债的yield也上升,这会部分甚至全部
抵消NAV的降低,如果你不停的reinvest所有的yield,最后得到的实际收益率其实没有

N****g 发帖数: 2829 | 19 bond fund风险低是相对stock fund来说的,这点没有异议吧?
Fed cut QE3后,国债利率必然上涨,那些买国债的Bond Fund的yield也会相应上涨,
抵消NAV的下跌。我的一个Bond fund在Scottrade里面显示Unrealized Gain/Loss是-2.
5%,但我比较一下我当时投进去的钱和现在fund的价值,不仅不是亏2.5%,而是赚2.7%
,就是因为我不停的reinvest yield,scottrade算gain/loss的时候没有把yield算进
去。
现在的问题是Bond Fund价格有点虚高,将来一段时间价格的下降可能比yield的上升来
得更快,但长期来说,并不会亏到哪里去。 |

理论上来讲,不要timing the market。把portfolilo balance好就行了。
理论上来讲,Bond fund持有的时间足够长,yield的上涨会抵消NAV的下跌。
理论上来讲,买individual bond不一定会比bond fund收益更好或风险更低。

b**e 发帖数: 88 | 35 一般不推荐,因为bond即使high yield, 预期收益也不如股票。
如果你的投资目的是长期资本成长,比如二三十年后的退休,一般推荐以股票基金为主
,搭配高信用品质的债券作为风险缓冲。 比如 70% S&P 500 fund + 30% Total bond
market fund
如果是为了中短期资金保值升值,则应该以债券为主。
high yield bond的风险收益在债券和股票之间,属于非必要性资产。
特别是,如果你已经有股票投资,high yield bond与股票走势正相关,不能缓冲股市
波动的风险,所以意义不大。 |

l**v 发帖数: 188 | 43 谢谢你的详尽解释。我对你所说的理解是这样的,麻烦你看一看对不对。
我举的例子那个20年的muni bond利率是3.7%的样子,免联邦税。你举的例子AGG 的ETF
现在的利率是税前-0.36%,税后-1.39%。两者差了5%。
那你的意思是不是说这个muni bond给的利率已经考虑到了今后利率要大涨。而这个AGG
是基于目前的interest rate,今后它的利率要非常大幅度的增长?(要match 这个5%
今后AGG的利率至少也要10%吧,3.7%+5%+additional increase to catch up)。我的
理解不知道对不对?
另外如果我决定买bond fund的话(我公司的401k即使用了fidelity的brokerage link
也不能买ETF)有什么可以推荐的吗?我计划20年后才退休,那么是不是买long term的
bond fund yield会比较高?你说的那个agg的equivalent maturity duration好像是6
