If the bond's price increases will it increase or decrease bond's yield?
neither once the bond is created the yield is set. the bond price is simply a reflection of the current rate and the rate, 'yield' of the bond.
Will a bond's yield to maturity increase or decrease if a bond 's price increases?
as yield to maturity increases the bonds price decreases, because a higher yield to maturity means its riskier to investors
What are the factors that influence the bond interest rates or prices?
1, bond price move inversely to interest rate 2. a decrease in yield results in a larger change in price than increase in yield 3. change in yield, long term bond price changed more than the short term bond 4. bond price increases with maturity at a diminishing rate 5. for a given change in yield, bond price with low coupon rate will change more than the bond price with high coupon rate.
What is relationship between a bond coupon rate and its duration?
bond coupon rates and yield rates have very similar effects and a very similar relationship to duration, lemme explain, by first explain durations effects in relation to interest rates, then yields and finally you can surmise that relationship between yield rates will be the same as coupon rates Duration can be seen as the elasticity of the bond's price with respect to interest rates. When duration is 7, a 15 year bond will fall 7% in value if interest rates increase by 1%. In the data we've generated we can also determine the relationship between yields and duration by analyzing the change after a 50 basis point decrease in rates. The duration will rise as yields are lowered, and conversely a high coupon rate or high yield will result in lower durations. While a higher yield reduces the present value of all the bond's payments, it reduces the value of payments further in the future by a greater proportional amount. This amounts to a reduction in duration. Merck & Company's bond has the highest yield and therefore one would surmise that the duration for MRK should be lower than the other bonds, this is only true if all other variables are held equal (ceteris paribus). This is not the case. The bonds have wildly different coupons remaining. Eli Lilly's bond has a similar number of coupons remaining-suggesting a relatively good candidate for comparison-and a lower yield than MRK, leading one to expect LLY bond to have a higher duration than MRK. An astute financial student would discourage this comparison, citing that LLY exhibits the highest (7.125%) annual coupon rate, which would in turn reduce the duration. While comparisons between bonds will fail us due to their unique characteristics, it is easy to see the change when examining a single bond and the effect of a 50 basis point decrease in rates has on the bond's duration. Every single bond's duration rose, relative to itself before the basis change, as their yields were lowered. This helps prove our assumption of the inverse relationship between yield and duration.
Will a bonds yield to maturity increase or decrease if the bond is downgraded by the rating agencies?
Changing of rating, in and of itself, will not affect the yield, but more generally, a more negative market view will see the yield rise and the price fall.
If the bond's price increases will it increase or decrease bond's yield?

Will a bond's yield to maturity increase or decrease if a bond 's price increases?
as yield to maturity increases the bonds price decreases, because a higher yield to maturity means its riskier to investors
Does the yield to maturity of a bond decrease as the bond nears maturity?
Nope it doesn't you suck
As the bond order increases the vibrational frequency?
decreases
How can interest rate affect bond liquidity?
If interest rate has been increased, the price of the bond falls.... If price of the bond falls, the yield that can be earned increases... So, if interest rate increases, it will lead to increases in yield which forces people in investing in the bond.....And liquidity will be more in bond market... Plz confirm the information.........................
If a bond price increases what happens to yield to maturity?
The YTM on a Bond versus it's Price is inversely related. Thus when the Price of the Bond Increases, the YTM Decreases.

Will a bond's yield to maturity increase or decrease when the bond become subordinated to another debt issue?
The yield to maturity will most likely increase because the bond will be considered more risky. This means investors will demand a higher yield to own it. Of course, the yield to maturity will only be higher if all the payments are actually made and the bond doesn't default.
