[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3251430, member: 7248"] Bond prices have an inverse relationship with interest rates. Rates go up, bond prices go down. Rates go down, bond prices go up. With low interest rates, bond prices are on the premium side. If rates ever go up, I would not want to be on the short holding side of bonds wanting capital appreciation. If you're in bonds for the long term for the coupon payments, then the volatility shouldn't bother you as much. [/QUOTE]
