According to the Wall Street Journal, this is the worst bond market since 1842. Why? Because when interest rates go up, bond prices go down.  To make matters worse, rates started at such low levels and the increase has been dramatic. The federal reserve increased the interest rate again in September to 3% and 3.25%. (In May it was 0.75% to 1.00%). Rates were raised by 0.5% on May 4, 2022 and more increases are anticipated in the months ahead. 

More problematic are long term duration bond funds because the longer the maturity of the bond the greater the decrease. Many bond investors are unaware of this risk and assume that their bond investments are their “safe” investments.
