The Growing Crisis in Japan: A Global Economic Shift
Japanese 30-Year Bonds Surge, Signaling a Major Turning Point
Recently, Japanese 30-year government bonds experienced a significant increase of 14 basis points, bringing their yield back to levels not seen since 1999. This movement marks one of the most substantial shifts in Japanese bond markets in decades. The rising yields imply that Japanese investors may soon seek higher returns elsewhere, potentially moving capital from the US back to Japan. This shift could have profound implications, not only for Japan's economy but for global markets as well.
