Stripped Yield

  

See: Strips.

When you strip a bond, you cut it into two pieces, selling the eventual principal payout, as well as the series of interest payments, along the way. So when that interest payment is stripped from the bond, there's an associated yield that comes from it. That's the strip yield.

And yeah, not nearly as exciting as it should be.
