You're not buying a bond for capital appreciation, you're buying it for income..
Just as if you bought a dairy cow for milk, you don't necessarily care what the price of beef is doing because you're goal is the milk production from that cow.

Unless the company defaults, you will get exactly what was stated
This is the only variable if you are definitely holding the bond to maturity and hence the ratings.
