Why is it that high yielding government bonds (particularly those with 6 month or 1 year maturities) are not more popular among investors? I was looking at government bonds from places like Russia, Brazil and South Africa, and they have yields in the 7-9 range.
Does this have something to do with the rate of inflation in these countries, and if so, would buying these bonds in dollars or euros be a better option?
