A bit more interest in bonds

The past few months have witnessed a sea-change in the fixed interest market. The yield on the 10-year UK government bond has almost tripled from its August low of 0.50% to 1.45% (rising yields equal falling bond prices). This pattern has been reflected, to a greater or lesser extent, across global bond markets, despite ongoing buying by central banks in the UK, Europe and Japan.

The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise. Capital values are at risk and not guaranteed.
