Yesterday I made a post suggesting weekly discussions about papers/articles. A few redditors seemed interested (got like 10 upvotes yay), so I uploaded a paper by AQR on google drive, you can access it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10dR50x16gPR6jvZP9Imn2Y5vyKHg9QrC/view?usp=sharing
The objective of the paper is to prove that even in low yield environments, bonds can still offer a good excess return if the yield curve is normal. You can comment the PDF if you have any question or answer the few questions I had reading the paper.
If you are interested in learning more about the yield curve, here are 2 links that could be interesting:

-
http://econbrowser.com/archives/2006/07/reading_the_yie (A short guide on how to read the yield curve, data is old)
I am interested in learning more about the yield curve and how to calculate/understand the term premium and the expected future interest rate.
