Snoopy,

Cheers for the info. I'm currently reading Ben Graham's "The Intelligent 
Investor" and his emphasis on a mix of bonds and stock appears wise to me. 
With say 10 - $20K available to invest in specific bonds (rather than mutual 
funds -I like to be a hands-on learner), your site appears to imply that the 
(fixed?) brokerage fees may be excessive. I haven't yet asked any brokers 
what they charge - know any good ones for this purpose?

I've since found www.investinginbonds.com very useful, but I suppose I'm 
looking more for ongoing discussion on NZ/Aus bonds / yield curve 
predictions etc in the manner of the share chatrooms. Maybe there is less to 
talk about with bonds  - just keep an eye on interest rates.
