WASHINGTON, Nov 24 (Reuters) - The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis said on Monday it had canceled the release of the advance gross domestic product estimate for the third quarter because of the recently ended government shutdown.

The advance estimate was originally scheduled for release on October 30. Last week, the BEA said the second estimate of third-quarter GDP and preliminary corporate profits that were due on November 26 would be rescheduled. The BEA publishes advance, second and third estimates for quarterly GDP. (Reporting By Lucia Mutikani and Susan Heavey, Editing by Franklin Paul)

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
