RISING CONCERNS
by Michael Creasman, CFP
potential risk posed by long- term bonds at
I
this point. Understanding this risk begins with the basic knowledge that bond prices are inversely relat- ed to interest rates. Tus, as interest rates rise, bond prices fall, and vice versa. Currently, there is a greater probability that interest rates will rise (generating a negative impact on a bond’s market price) over the long term than over the shorter term. Consequently, investors who are holding long-term bonds and at- tempting to sell them before matu- rity are more likely to be faced with a deeply discounted market price. Short-term bonds are less likely to be subjected to significant rises in interest rates and are easier to hold to maturity. HINT: Te longer a bond is held,
the more it will be subjected to the effects of inflation. Where you save your money dur-
ing economic downturns can deter- mine how that savings grows over time. In today’s economic climate, it is more important than ever to rely on financial professionals to help you sort through your invest- ment options and align them with your timeline for needing funds.
