This paper studies the impact of ambiguous information regarding future interest rates on bond prices. A simple bond …-pricing model with ambiguity aversion shows that positive bond uncertainty premiums exist, and the interest rate ambiguity affects … the term structure of interest rates and yield volatilities. Consistent with the theory, empirical measures of interest …

We study drift and cyclical components in U.S. Treasury bonds. We find that bond yields are drifting because they … productivity trends, plus long-term inflation expectations, leads to cyclical deviations of bond prices from their drift that … predict bond returns in- and out-of-sample. These bond cycles can originate from term premia or temporary deviations from …

This paper introduces a novel kind of interest-rate model offering simple analytical pricing formulas for swaps, futures, swaptions, caps and floors. The model is based on an original use of regime-switching features that makes it consistent with the non-linear behavior of interest rates. In...
