• Convexity
  Fixed-income measure showing how a bond's duration changes as yields move, improving rate-risk analysis.
• Negative Convexity
  Bond-price behavior where upside is constrained as yields fall, often because embedded options change expected cash flows.
• Yield Curve Risk
  Fixed-income risk that changes in the slope or shape of the yield curve can hurt a bond portfolio even when average rates barely move.
