Based on your analysis of future inflation and its effect on future interest rates, you predict that short-term interest rates will rise over the next year. In particular, you think that the 1-year and the 2-year rates will be higher than they are currently (as indicated by the data in Problem 2). More specifically, you think that the 1-year rate next year will be 3% (per annum) and the two-year rate will be 3.5% (per annum). You want to exploit your analysis to generate a return over 1 year (that is, the horizon of your investment strategy is one year). Based on your beliefs, you want to analyze the returns from two investment strategies: (1) investing in 2-year zeros and selling them early (in exactly one year), or (2) investing in 3-year zeros and selling them early (in exactly one year). How do the returns from the two strategies calculated in part 2 compare to just investing directly for one year by investing in the 1-year zero? Explain why these returns are different and ranked the way they are. Hint: how do your expectations compare to those implied by the current yield curve (as shown in the data in Problem 2)?
