Supply and Demand. When the economy sours, investors tend to move out of stocks and into bonds. In most free market situations, when demand exceeds supply, prices tends to rise. But when it comes to bonds, increased demand tends to cause the initial interest rate to decline.
If market participants believe that there is higher inflation on the horizon, interest rates and bond yields will rise (and prices will decrease) to compensate for the loss of the purchasing power of future cash flows. Those bonds with the longest cash flows will see their yields rise and prices fall the most.
