2. In presenting Investment 1, using Shire Gate Advisers’ interest rate outlook, Smith could show that riding the yield curve provides a total return that is most likely:
选项:
A.lower than the return on a maturity-matching strategy.
B.equal to the return on a maturity-matching strategy.
C.higher than the return on a maturity-matching strategy.
解释:
C is correct.
When the spot curve is upward sloping and its level and shape are expected to remain constant over an investment horizon (Shire Gate Advisers’ view), buying bonds with a maturity longer than the investment horizon (i.e., riding the yield curve) will provide a total return greater than the return on a maturity-matching strategy.
我以为是yield curve 不会upward,会是flat的,所以就选择return 低于。所以stable unchange的意思就是upward的嘛
