Bonds are issued by governments and corporations when they want to raise money. By buying a bond, investor is giving the issuer a loan, and issuer agrees to pay the investor back the face value of the loan on a specific date, and to pay periodic interest as well.
Bond yield, on the other hand, is the return that an investor gets on that bond or on a particular government security.

A fall/rise in interest rates in an economy pushes up/pulls down bond prices. However, bond yields fall/rise in this situation.

Rise in bond yields denotes higher interest rates in economy. This increases borrowing costs for companies & consumers. This ultimately reduces overall demand in economy & negatively impacts #StockMarket.
