A bond is a unit of debt issued by a company to the bondholder and considered tradeable security. A bond has a fixed return since it is paid at a fixed rate. The price of the bond is inversely correlated with the interest rate: when the rate goes up the bond price fall and when the rate falls the bond price goes up.
