**Showing "yield-to-worst." The yield-to-worst is the lowest potential yield that can be received on a bond, assuming there is no default. It is calculated based on the lowest yield on a bond, calculated to each call date (where applicable). For bonds that are not callable, the yield-to-worst is the same as the yield-to-maturity.
