30 Year 4.71 4.69 4.69 4.75
Here is a table that show Us Treasure Bonds Maturity Yield
Let say I want to compare 3 month bond versus 30 year if I pursache 3 month bond for $1000 with yield 3.79 and consider to sell at maturity day I will get the 3.79 % so if I will buy those bond 4 times a year with average yield 3.79% = 15.16% a year?
that mean is better to buy 3 month bond for one year maturity that mean 4 transaction than 30 year bond that give only 4.71% yield? Where is a trick here? I know something is wrong? What do you think about it? I have never invest in bond, but I have read few article about them... isn't there any trick? Am I wrong here?
