Please can you tell me where I can check the bond listings and price
online. Please guide me to the best discount brokers for international
bonds, Including Indian Bank bonds, Australian bank bonds. I need a
good website that gives a listing of all international bonds so that I
can compare all the bonds.

Most of the time a U.S. investor is better off buying bond mutual
funds rather than individual bonds, IMO. He will almost always be
better off not trying to buy individual foreign bonds. For one thing,
the secondary market in bonds, unlike that in stocks, is heavily
geared towards institutions, and an individual trading small amounts
is likely to pay a higher bid-ask spread.

That's too bad. Does anyone remember "coupon clipping", as in taking a
bond interest coupon to the bank to deposit it, after cutting it off a
printed corporate bond?

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is such a web site. Even
from my broker I have to call them to get the pricing informaiton.

Barrons has a large bond listing in their weekly newspaper.
I dont know if all of this is online in their subscription web-site.
