周二,日本10年期政府债券收益率降至1.47%左右,创四周新低,因为随着对美联储降息的预期越来越高,日本国债收益率也出现了更广泛的下降。投资者还消化了日本央行6月份会议的纪要,该纪要显示,如果贸易紧张局势缓解,政策制定者仍对进一步加息持开放态度。然而,董事会重申,鉴于持续的不确定性,目前的利率仍然合适。财政部一名官员强调了灵活政策反应的重要性,特别是在管理日本央行的债券购买以确保市场稳定方面。上周,央行保持利率稳定,但上调了通胀预期,同时警告全球贸易发展带来的风险增加。
Japan’s 10-year government bond yield declined to around 1.47% on Tuesday, marking a four-week low as it tracked a broader drop in US Treasury yields amid growing expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. Investors also digested minutes from the Bank of Japan’s June meeting, which showed policymakers remain open to additional rate hikes if trade tensions ease. However, the board reiterated that current interest rates remain appropriate given ongoing uncertainties. A Ministry of Finance official underscored the importance of flexible policy responses, particularly in managing the BOJ’s bond purchases to ensure market stability. Last week, the central bank held rates steady but raised its inflation outlook, while warning of increased risks from global trade developments.
