I posted on this earlier: BOJ increases purchases of superlong JGBs in Wednesday's operations
Reuters have a bit more up on the web now:
- Superlong JGB yields have risen to multi-month highs in recent sessions, tracking global yields higher. Yields on U.S. Treasuries have soared since the Nov. 8 election of Donald Trump, whom market participants expect will adopt inflation-stoking policies.
- The 30-year yield, which touched its highest levels since mid-March in the previous session, shed 8 basis points (bps) to 0.725 percent, down from an earlier session high of 0.785 percent.
