1)Treasury was bidding above and over fair market price. These old
bonds aren't exactly that liquid. 2)Suppose there are tax advantages
to booking a capital gain as well. 3)If you want to hold a long
bond, that 11% bond was probably issued sometime between 1981-1984.
It has only 10 years to maturity and given the healthy coupon, its
duration is probably about 5 years. Remember these funds go by
average duration on their portfolios. 4)Who wants to own a high
coupon bond during times when the front end yield is so low? You
wind up reinvesting that big coupon at 1.5% money market. May as
well buy a low coupon bond to back load your coupons.
