This week we will be comparing two bonds on the market. Using the Finra Markets website (https://finra-markets.morningstar.com/BondCenter/Default.jsp), compare and contrast the two bond offerings.

Document the following:

• Who issues the bonds?
• What price are the bonds currently trading at?
• Are the bonds selling at a premium or a discount?
• What are interest rate for the bonds?
• What are the maturity date for the bonds?
• Are the bonds callable?

Now compare the bonds. Which is a better investment for you and why? Discuss things like ratings, coupon payments, price, and maturity.
