Yield Read

One borrower's bond yield: what it is made of, what is setting it, and what it costs the issuer.

What it answers

The question Yield Read is built for

Name the issuer: a country, a state or city, a company or a supranational. It states the level with its date and source, describes the issuer, decomposes what the yield is made of, reads what is setting it, works out what it means for the issuer, checks whether peers moved too, records what the coverage says and what is not driving it, and names what would shift the read.

Who reaches for it

Fixed-income analysts, treasury and finance staff, policy desks and financial journalists.

What comes back

11 sections, on every run

These are the headings the result renders, read from the same promise the form makes before you spend a credit. A section that depends on what the record holds is rendered when it can be and never promised here.

What it will not do

The lines it holds

Every level and every move is quoted verbatim with a date and a source, or stated as not established. It is not a forecast, a target, a cheap-or-rich call or a position, and a market yield is never presented as the issuer's interest bill.

Every claim carries its grade

A claim the scan could not source is marked as such rather than dressed up. How the grades work →
