Answer: A. I and IV only
Explanation:
The relationship between bond prices and interest is an inverse one. This is because bonds have fixed rates so when for instance interest rates increase, the fixed rate of bonds will become less attractive as people would want to make the higher interest. They will therefore demand less of bonds and the prices will drop. The reverse is true.
Also, long term bonds are more affected by interest rate changes then short term bonds. This is because, as they have a longer term till maturity, they will be even less attractive when interest rates rise.
