| janglejuic | positive then negative as you see from the graph in LOS |
| GBolt93 | pretty sure you have that backwards. Low yields have negative convexity because you would call the bond and refinance at a lower rate. high yields have positive convexity like a non-callable bond because the call option is worthless since you wouldn't want to refinance the debt at a higher rate. |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
