Japan’s 10-year government bond yield was little changed at around 2.67% on Wednesday, holding steady despite hawkish signals from the Bank of Japan as investors also monitored progress in US-Iran peace negotiations. The Summary of Opinions from the BOJ’s June meeting showed that policymakers generally believed further interest rate increases were appropriate, citing underlying inflation’s gradual move toward the 2% target and still-accommodative financial conditions. Last week, the central bank raised its policy rate by 25 basis points to 1% in an effort to curb inflationary pressures and support the weakened yen. Meanwhile, progress in talks between Washington and Tehran have increased traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, easing strains in global energy markets and helping to reduce inflation concerns.

Japan 10-Year Bond Yield Ticks Higher
Japan’s 10-year government bond yield climbed to around 2.67% as Bank of Japan Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino stated recently the central bank will continue raising interest rates while carefully monitoring the risk that underlying inflation could exceed its 2% target. He added that Japan’s economy remains resilient, supported by solid corporate earnings and rising household incomes. Last week, the BOJ raised its policy rate by 25 basis points to 1% in an effort to contain inflation and support the weakening yen. Meanwhile, recent data showed Japan’s core inflation remained unchanged at 1.4% in May, in line with expectations, indicating that underlying price pressures stayed moderate despite concerns that higher energy costs could drive inflation higher. The comments reinforced expectations that the BOJ will maintain its gradual tightening path if economic and price conditions continue to evolve as anticipated.

Japan 10-Year Bond Yield Stabilizes
Japan’s 10-year government bond yield steadied around 2.63% on Thursday as investors assessed recent central bank decisions alongside evolving geopolitical developments in the Middle East. The US Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged on Wednesday but signaled growing support for rate hikes later this year. At the same time, the Bank of Japan raised its policy rate by 25 basis points to 1% on Tuesday in an effort to curb inflation and support a weakening yen. However, the move drew dissent within the board, with Toichiro Asada arguing that downside risks to growth and employment outweigh upside risks to inflation. On the geopolitical front, the US and Iran digitally signed their interim peace agreement, though it remains unclear whether Iran has already begun steps to fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
