Yen, JGB Likely Supported in Near-term by Katayama's Remarks

Dow Jones09:28

0128 GMT - The yen and JGB sentiment are likely supported in the near-term by Japanese Finance Minister Katayama's remarks last Friday, strategists at Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities say in a research report. "The comments act as a verbal intervention against yen weakness and super-long JGB volatility," they say. Each one-percentage-point increase in the Government Pension Investment Fund's domestic bond allocation would "mechanically" imply around 0.66 trillion yen of buying pressure in seven- to 11-year JGBs and around Y0.8 trillion in JGBs with tenors beyond 11 years, they estimate. These estimates are based on GPIF's security-level market-value weights as of end-March 2026. The "mechanical flow risk is not trivial," they add. The 10-year JGB yield is down 0.5 bps at 2.755%.
