An increase in expected inflation shifts bond supply to the right and bond demand to the left.
The two effects reinforce each other, resulting in a lower bond price and a higher interest rate

A business-cycle downturn:
A business-cycle downturn shifts the bond supply to the left and the bond demand to the left.
In this case the bond price can rise or fall, depending on which shift is greater.
But interest rates tend to fall in recessions, so bond prices are likely to increase
