Savings bonds are an investment that will grant you interest based on how long you have the bond. The interest is comprised of either an annual or semiannual basis and will give you a larger sum over a longer period of time.
Most bonds have two parts: the coupons and the corpus. The corpus represents the principal; the coupons the interest. Coupons have redemption dates printed on them; you turn in your coupon to receive the interest payment.

Contract rate is known as a coupon rate (because older securities actually had coupons that were clipped and sent to paying banks for periodic interest). It is the fixed rate of interest for which a particular bond was issued. Market rate is actually known as yield (prevailing interest rate for new bonds) and yields change with prevailing interest rates. Yields are closely aligned with prevailing interest rates.
Junk bonds are risky investments, but have speculative appeal because they offer much higher yields than safer bonds. Companies that issue junk bonds typically have less-than-stellarcredit ratings , and investors demand these higher yields as compensation for the risk of investing in them. A junk bond issued from a company that manages to turn its performance around for the better and has its credit rating upgraded will generally have a substantial price appreciation.
The prices of bonds will fall and yields to maturity (or call date) will rise, since investors will require greater yields on their investments to offset the expected increase in inflation.
Yes, high yield investments which are also called junk bonds, are quite risky and that is why they pay higher yields. Safer investments will have lower yields, and include AAA and AA rated corporate bonds, government bonds, as well as Certificates of Deposit (CDs) among others.
