How much to bond prices fluctuate?
According to what I've been reading, bond prices fluctuate based on what interest rates are. I was thinking of maybe buying Wal-Mart bonds which are currently priced at $115.30 with a 5.80% Semi-annual coupon. The maturity date is February 2018. I'm new to bonds. I want to understand how much that bond price will fluctuate between now and February 2018. Thanks a lot for your help.
Impossible to say, as that would be predicting the future and if we could do that we'd all be rich already.
Thanks for your response. I understand what you're saying. But, can you atleast give me a clue or an example of a bond you know of? With stocks, its easy to see the daily fluctuations because all you have to do is look at the charts. But, I don't see any charts for bonds on financial websites.
