➤ Why do bondholders and borrowers often lose when interest rates rise?
Existing bond prices fall because higher market yields make lower-coupon bonds less attractive. Long-duration bonds are most sensitive to this price drop. Borrowers face higher costs for mortgages, car loans, and credit cards, and refinancing becomes more expensive, which reduces consumer borrowing and can pressure stock valuations.
