老师您好,这道题我在A和C中纠结了很久。我理解题干的意思是问发生哪种情况时HY bond价格下降更多。
A是Steepening of the benchmark yield volatility curve,Benchmark的波动性曲线更陡峭,波动加大,我想着不利于HY bond吧?
C的话,他说“flight to quality”,又说 bullish benchmark yield curve flattening (long-term rates fall by more than short-term rates do),我当时觉得很奇怪,收益率曲线bullish向下移动,那么债券价格上升,怎么又能flight to quality了?flight to quality不是说信用环境不好,大家都去投稳健的government bond嘛?
