AI SUMMARY
●Japan's 10-year bond yield hits 1.94%, the highest level since 2007.
●The rise is fueled by reports that the BOJ is re-evaluating its neutral interest rate.
●Higher yields may impact global markets by unwinding yen carry trades.
Japan's 10-year Note Yield has surged to levels not seen since July 2007. Initially reported at 1.92%, yields have climbed significantly from negative territory (recorded as low as -0.28% in 2019). This dramatic shift occurs as the nation moves away from its ultra-loose monetary policy and prepares for potential interest rate hikes.
[Update 1]
The bond sell-off has continued, pushing the 10-year yield to 1.94%. This latest leg up is driven by reports that the Bank of Japan is re-examining its "neutral interest rate," fueling speculation of further policy tightening. Rising domestic yields are closely watched as a critical macro indicator, as they could incentivize the repatriation of capital and impact global liquidity by unwinding yen carry trades.
