Portfolio Description
“Yield Curve” is a bond risk factor that captures the risk of speculating on a particular point of the yield curve.
The factor is proxied by going long a 20+ year duration Treasury basket and short a 7-10 year duration Treasury basket with the goal of neutralizing much of the duration exposure of the factor.
