» Bonds are loans to governments or companies; their yield is the interest paid.

» When yields rise, stocks often wobble — money has a safer place to go.

» Bonds are the quiet giant that moves everything else.

» Explore the bonds desk and watch the yields.

Watching a concept is not the same as running it, so every Academy lesson ships with a live mission inside the Tapeboard terminal. This one runs on the bonds desk (/bonds). Reading is free; running missions takes a free account.
