BREAKING: Japanese bond yields surge sharply
• 10Y: 2.30% (highest since 1999).
• 5Y: 1.72% (near ATH).
What's causing it?
Oil price spike + Middle East conflict escalation: triggering fears of global inflation.
Pressure also coming from US Treasuries that have declined 3 weeks in a row.
What's the impact?
• Yen weakens (USD/JPY) approaching 160.
• Japan ready for market intervention.
• Risk of energy crisis in Asia increasing.
Currently the market is pricing in inflation & energy uncertainty in Japan. 🇯🇵
