Inflation erodes the purchasing power of a bond 's future cash flows. A rise in inflation will cause investors to demand higher yields to compensate for inflation rate risk. Also, prices will tend to drop because the bond will be paying interest with less purchasing power.
A higher perceived risk would yield similar results to an inflation increase. Prices would decrease and required rates of return would increase. A decease in risk would increase the price and decrease the require rate of return.
