The yield on Japan's 40-year government bonds has reached a record high since they entered the market. This happened against the backdrop of a global sell-off of debt assets and expectations of higher interest rates from the Bank of Japan in the coming months. The indicator increased by 3 basis points, reaching 2.755%, the highest level in the last 16 years. At the same time, Japan's 20-year bond yields have also reached a peak not seen since May 2011. Rising yields are recorded around the world, which is associated with increasing concerns about inflation, increasing budget deficits and stable data on the US economy. Such factors force market participants to reconsider their expectations regarding the Fed's interest rate cuts. In addition, investors are gradually putting into their forecasts the probability of a rate hike by the Bank of Japan, estimating this scenario at 60% in the coming week and at 83% by March. The Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan, Ryozo Himino, noted that the possibility of changing the current interest rate policy will be discussed at the upcoming meeting of the central bank. Experts believe that a rate hike may take place in the coming days if market conditions turn out to be favorable for such a decision.
