  [19:39.38]Notes:Suppose you have just bought a newly issued $1,000 bond
  [19:44.18]that pays 8 percent per year in perpetuity(forever)on the $1,000 principal.
  [19:50.27]Notes:perpetuity
  [20:15.58]As long as you own the bond,you are entitled to a fixed return of $80 per year.
  [20:15.08]只要你拥有债券,就能获得每年80美元的年金.
  [20:14.58]Let us also assume that,after you have held the bond for one year
  [20:17.93]让我们假设,你已经拥有该债券一年时间
  [20:21.27]and have collected your $80 interest for that year,
  [20:23.22]并且已经获得80美元的年金,
  [20:25.16]the market interest rate increases to 10 percent.
  [20:27.51]现在市场利率上升到10%.
  [20:29.86]Notes:The market interest rate increases to 10 percent.
  [20:35.66]market interest rate
  [21:03.07]How will the increase in the interest rate affect the market price of your bond?
  [21:05.70]该市场利率的提高是如何影响债券的市场价格的呢?
  [21:08.34]Since bond purchasers can now earn 10 percent interest
  [21:10.59]债券购买人能获得10%的年金,
  [21:12.83]if they buy newly issued bonds,
  [21:14.48]如果他们现在购买新发行的债券
  [21:16.13]they will be unwilling to pay more than $800 for your bond,
  [21:18.32]因此若高于800美元他们就不乐意收购上述面值为1000美元的债券,
  [21:20.51]which pays only $80 interest per year.
  [21:22.36]因为这种债券每年只有80%美元的年金.
  [21:24.20]After all,why would anyone pay $1,000 for a bond
  [21:26.14]但是,为什么有人愿意用1000美元购买年金
  [21:28.09]that yields only $80 interest per year
  [21:29.93]只有80美元的债券,
  [21:31.77]when the same $1,000 will now purchase a bond
  [21:33.88]而用同样的1000美元
  [21:35.98]that yields $100(10 percent)per year?
  [21:38.17]现在可买到年金100美元的债券?
  [21:40.37]Once the interest rate has risen to 10 percent,
  [21:42.22]一旦市场利率升到10%,
  [21:44.08]your 8 percent $1,000 bond will no longer sell for its original value.
  [21:47.53]你拥有的年金为本金8%的1000美元的债券就无法按面值出售.
  [21:50.97]If potential buyers expect the new 10 percent rate to continue,
  [21:53.08]如果购买者预期10%的市场利率还会继续攀升,
  [21:55.18]the market value of your bond will fall to $800.
  [21:57.43]那么你的债券市场价值就跌到800美元.
  [21:59.67]Notes:market value The market value of your bond will fall to $800.
  [22:33.79]You have experienced a $200 capital loss on the bond during the year.
  [22:36.83]你每年遭受200美元的资本损失.
  [22:39.87]Notes:You have experienced a $200 capital loss on the bond during the year.
  [22:47.27]capital loss
  [23:22.66]Rising market interest rates cause bond prices to decline.
  [23:26.15]逐渐攀升的市场利率使得债券价格下跌.
  [23:29.64]On the other hand,falling interest rates will cause bond prices to rise.
  [23:32.38]相反,下跌的市场利率会使债券价格上升.
  [23:35.12]If the market interest rate had fallen to 6 percent,
  [23:37.23]如果市场利率跌破6%,
  [23:39.33]what would have happened to the market value of your bond?
  [23:41.43]债券的市场价格会如何变化呢?
  [23:43.54](Hint:$80 is 6 percent of $1,333).
  [23:47.23](提示:80美元的年金若占本金的6%,则本金为1333美元)
  [23:50.93]Bond prices and interest rates are inversely related to each other.
  [23:53.72]债券市场价格同利率成反比.
