Understanding Current Market Yield
The current market yield is a crucial metric for investors, as it indicates the return on investment based on the income generated from an investment relative to its current market price. This yield is particularly important for fixed-income securities, such as bonds, where the yield can fluctuate based on market conditions.
To calculate the current market yield, you can use the formula:
Current Market Yield = (Annual Income / Investment Amount) * 100
Where:
- Annual Income: This is the total income generated from the investment over a year.
- Investment Amount: This is the total amount invested in the asset.
