Enhance Your Investment Strategy With Bond And Earnings Yields
While determining your equity and debt investment strategy, turn to bond and earnings yield for guidance.
Bond Yield
Bond yield is the return an investor earns on a bond, typically expressed as a percentage of its face value. It is influenced by factors like the bond's interest rate (coupon), current market price, and time to maturity. Yields help investors assess the attractiveness and risk of the bond investment.
Bond Yield = Interest Income / Market Price
Earnings Yield
The earnings yield represents the percentage of earnings an investor can expect to receive for each rupee invested in the stock. A higher earnings yield indicates a potentially better value investment, as it implies a higher return relative to the stock's price.
Earnings Yield = 1/P/E
Earnings per share / Market price per share X 100
