Pendle's principal tokens derive their fixed yield from purchasing below redemption value, but selling before maturity can convert a seemingly guaranteed return into a loss. Market prices and transaction fees, rather than the expected payoff, determine outcomes for early sellers of these yield-bearing instruments.
