[Japanese Long-Term Government Bond Yields Rise on BOJ Rate Hike Expectations] Jin10 News, September 14 – Driven by ongoing expectations that the Bank of Japan may accelerate its rate hike pace, Japanese long-term government bond yields have risen. Previously, U.S. Treasury yields climbed last Friday, fueled by strong U.S. consumer inflation data, which in turn pushed up domestic yields in Japan. Ahead of policy meetings by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan later this week, investors are closely monitoring any policy-related developments, as well as the situation in Iran and energy price trends. The 10-year Japanese government bond yield rose 0.5 basis points during the day, reaching 2.990%.
