问题如下:
Compared with investment-grade bonds, the spread movements on high-yield bonds are influenced:
选项:
A.less by interest rate changes and exhibit a greater correlation with movements in equity markets.
B.less by interest rate changes and exhibit a lower correlation with movements in equity markets.
C.more by interest rate changes and exhibit a greater correlation with movements in equity markets.
解释:
A is correct. High-yield bonds can be thought of as a hybrid between investment-grade bonds and equity securities. Their spread movements are less influenced by interest rate changes than are investment-grade bonds, and they exhibit greater correlation with movements in equity markets.
B is incorrect because the spread movement on high-yield bonds is less influenced by interest rate changes than are investment-grade bonds, and they exhibit greater, not lower, correlation with movements in equity markets.
C is incorrect because the spread movements on high-yield bonds are less, not more, influenced by interest rate changes than are investment-grade bonds, and they exhibit greater correlation with movements in equity markets.
考点:high-yield bond
解析:1.相比投资级别债券,垃圾债更像equity,所以受到股票市场的影响更大,与股市走势的相关性更强。
2.相比垃圾债,投资级别债券就更像bond,所以受到债券市场的影响更大,也就是受到利率变化的影响更大。反之,垃圾债受到利率变化的影响较小。
