Yield sensitivity measures how much a bond's price changes when interest rates fluctuate.
✅ Bonds and interest rates have an inverse relationship: when interest rates rise, bond prices fall, and vice versa.
✅ Bond characteristics like maturity, coupon rate, and yield to maturity affect sensitivity.
✅ Longer maturity, lower coupon rates, and lower yield bonds are more sensitive to interest rate changes.
✅ Duration measures a bond's sensitivity to interest rate changes.
✅ Investors can manage interest rate risk by adjusting bond maturity, diversifying their portfolio, or using interest rate derivatives.
