Sure, simple enough...<g> first of all, we need to understand the bond market trades in an inverted relationship with interest rates, this means bonds rally as rates decline... therefore, as a byproduct of this inverted relationship, the bond futures are at a discount to the cash market, unlike the SP's that are at a premium to the cash market... now, with this understand in mind, even if there were no expectation of rate changes and the cash bond market remained unchanged for months, the bond futures will continue to inch its way higher until it come up to the cash market... therein is the accrued interest in that market...
