Corporate and federal debt has increased over 350% in the last four years, accompanied by an explosion in the use of complex derivative products. To cope with this new market, fixed income traders - and the tools and techniques they use - have become increasingly sophisticated. There is an urgent need for a high-quality reference book on managing interest rate risk and on the primary and secondary markets for the outstanding bonds worth trillions of dollars. The Bond Market is a thorough guide to the mechanics of the market for U.S. Treasury securities and their derivative products. It explains the art and science of trading bonds for maximum profit with controlled risk, and illustrates how the best traders apply sound theoretical techniques under battlefield conditions. This is a valuable resource for readers with no prior knowledge of the bond market, as well as those who want to enhance their understanding of bond theory with real-life trading tools and techniques. The Bond Market looks at the big picture while focusing on important details. Based on her extensive trading experience, Christina I. Ray covers bond market basics and bond trading strategies, and provides an overview of the bond trading business. This one-of-a-kind reference shows readers how traders use mathematics to construct positions, in bonds or their derivatives, suitable for different market conditions and their own market risks; how traders determine the value of different securities and answers the critical question: Is bond movement random or can it be forecast? and the consistent approaches used by long-lived traders that readers can apply quantitatively to analyze the risk-reward profile of any position.
