Rich / cheap model

 Note: The red dot is the spread between current and estimated bond yield in each sector. The green line is an average bond yield during the last 3 months. The vertical line represented the yield
 movement during the past 3 months. Investors who do not have a solid view on yield curve outlook may use this model for short-term investment by buying an undervalued bond, whose yield above
 the average (red dot above green line), and selling an overvalued bond, whose yield below average (red dot below).Under an assumption of mean reversion, we expect the current yields will convert
 their average value in the next 3 months.
