Japan’s 10-year government bond yield rose to around 2.69% on Wednesday after falling in the previous session, as the country’s wholesale inflation accelerated at its fastest pace in three years due to surging energy costs. Japan’s producer prices increased 6.1% in May from a year earlier, following an upwardly revised 5.3% gain in April and coming in above market expectations of 5.5%. The stronger-than-expected data reinforced expectations that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates next week as policymakers grapple with rising inflationary pressures driven by the Middle East conflict and the yen’s sharp weakness. Investors are also watching for hawkish comments from BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda, with markets increasingly betting on another rate hike in September and the possibility of a third increase in December.

Japan 10Y Yield Falls as Oil Prices Retreat
Japan’s 10-year government bond yield fell to around 2.67% on Tuesday, pulling back from a two-week high as oil prices declined after Iran and Israel agreed to halt attacks against each other, boosting hopes that peace negotiations could move forward. The easing in oil prices helped reduce concerns about energy-driven inflation and the need for higher interest rates. Even so, the Bank of Japan is still widely expected to raise interest rates later this month as policymakers contend with persistent inflationary pressures linked to elevated energy costs. Reports also indicated that the BOJ will review its bond tapering plan and is likely to further reduce its monthly bond purchases. Meanwhile, investors are awaiting Wednesday’s auction of 30-year Japanese government bonds to gauge demand in a high-yield environment.
