I think if spreads are widening, it usually points to trouble ahead for the economy, but I need to double-check my notes on that.

Okay, let's see. The bond 'Bond F' has a higher YTM than the benchmark YTMs, so that could indicate some credit spread widening. I'll need to think this through step-by-step.

Hmm, let's see. The bond's YTM has increased, which means the price has decreased. That's typically a sign of increasing credit risk, so option C is the way to go. Time to break out the crystal ball and start predicting the next financial crisis!
