The yield curve varies over time based the relative riskiness of buying a single long-term bond versus purchasing multiple short-term bonds. This explanation of the yield curve is most consistent with
A.the Fisher Effect theoryB.the market segmentation theoryC.the unbiased expectations theoryD.the liquidity preference theory
We discussed the expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates. What does it says about the factors that influence the shape (upward, downward or flat) of the yield curve. Why does the yield curve sometimes inverts (become downward sloping) even though most of the time it is upward sloping?
What is the difference between the WAC and the pass-through coupon rate?

- Exploring Finance: The Security Market Line and Inflation Changes Security Market Line: Inflation Changes Conceptual Overview: Explore how inflation changes the security market line. The Security Market Line defines the required rate of return for a security to be worth buying or holding. The line, depicted in blue in the graph, is the sum of the risk-free return (rf in the slider) and a risk premium determined by the market-risk premium (RPM) multiplied by the security's beta coefficient for risk. Drag the slider below the graph to change the amount of the risk-free return. These changes reflect changes in inflation. Drag left or right on the graph to move the cursor to evaluate securities with different beta coefficients. In this graph, the market-risk premium is fixed at 5%. r = r_{RF} + RP_M * beta = 6\% + 5\% * 1 = 6\% + 5.00\% = 11.00\%r=rRF+RPM∗beta=6%+5%∗1=6%+5.00%=11.00% 1.
