I never understood why bonds print higher when the face yield goes down. If federal funds were lowered beyond a certain point, the dollar would come under renewed pressure and long-term bonds would actually go up in yield. Where that point is, is impossible to determine. Aaah! So, what I didn't understand is the way it is. OK. Up to a "certain point" ..."impossible to determine"? Uhh? So, nobody knows? It is just that point where bonds prices goes down = yields go up that I always wanted to determine before ever trading bonds. Why can't I get a Ferrari as a company car? This seems to be the needed item to trade bonds.
