The volatility we’ve seen in the stock market lately is nothing new. What investors should really pay attention to right now, experts say, is the bond market. 


Most investors today have only ever experienced a rising bond market, since interest rates and bond yields have an inverse relationship. So what many of us may not realize is that at some point, interest rates will have to rise again, which means bond yields will fall in value. “They are on opposite ends of a seesaw: When one goes up, the other goes down,” says financial advisor Ric Edelman.


And the worst part, he notes, is that this “will hit the very investor who’s least able to sustain the volatility: the conservative, income-oriented investor who is retired and doesn’t have 30 years to wait for recovery.” Casey Bond explains how this relationship works, what it all means, and what you should do to protect your money now.
