摘要

Bond yields are up. The ten-year treasury has climbed a full percentage point since last year, to 4.8%. And with Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan signaling he'll kick up short-term rates, which have been at their lowest levels since 1958, expect the trend to continue. That's bad news and good news for people like retiree Jack L. Linehan, 73, who lives on the income from his portfolio. Bad news: Rising rates depress bond prices. Good news: Any new money put to work in the bond market gets a better return. Linehan has been reaching for yield to feed his income ― and taking on a few risks. Linehan, who used to own a small aircraft-sealant business in McMinnville, Ore., bought stock in tiny Bermuda-based Knightsbridge Tankers for its rich 18% dividend yield. Although most oil tanker owners are doing well these days, Knightsbridge has struggled to maintain its $3.09 annual dividend, which wasn't covered by the $2.78 per share the company probably earned last year.

Linehan）这样的人来说，这是个坏消息和好消息，他们靠自己的投资组合为生。坏消息：利率上升压低了债券价格。好消息：债券市场上投入的任何新资金都会获得更好的回报。 Linehan一直在寻求收益来增加收入，并承担一些风险。曾经在俄勒冈州麦克明维尔市拥有小型飞机密封胶业务的莱恩汉以18％的高股息收益率购买了百慕大小型骑士桥油轮的股票。尽管这些天大多数油轮所有者都表现不错，但骑士桥仍在努力维持其3.09美元的年度股息，但该公司去年可能赚到的每股2.78美元并未包括在内。
