Which would you rather be owning if there is a decline in market interest rates: long-term bonds or short-term bonds? why?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Long-term bonds are preferable to hold if interest rates decrease because their price will rise more than the price of short-term bonds, providing a bigger return. Long-term bonds, however, are more susceptible to interest-rate risk. In addition, the longevity of the bonds, not only their term to maturity, is a major factor.

<h3>What are short-term bonds?</h3>

Short-term bonds may offer consistent income with comparatively little risk. When compared to money markets, higher profits can be obtained. Even some bonds are tax-free.

The potential yield of a short-term bond is higher than that of money market investments. Bonds having shorter maturities are often more resistant to changes in interest rates than other types of assets. Purchasing a bond and keeping it until it matures entitles you to the stated principle and interest rates.
