JGB Futures Edge Higher on Possible Position Adjustments
0009 GMT — JGB futures edge higher in morning Tokyo session on possible position adjustments. However, gains are likely to be curbed by President Trump's announcement of a U.S.-EU trade agreement. Trump said the U.S. would set a baseline tariff of 15% for European goods. Although the tariff rate was as previously reported, a risk-on mood will probably spread in financial markets, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities' fixed income strategists say in a commentary. This may also support expectations of a Bank of Japan rate increase this year, the strategists add. The 10-year JGB futures are higher by 0.13 yen to 137.56 yen. (

JGB Futures Edge Lower Ahead of Japan's 30-Year Bond Auction
0018 GMT — JGB futures edge lower in morning Tokyo session ahead of Japanese Finance Ministry's auction of about 700 billion yen of 30-year sovereign debt. 'The auction is likely to be digested smoothly as we expect demand from pension funds,' Citi Research's Tomohisa Fujiki says in a research report. The outcome of this week's 10-year auction suggests direct bidding without dealer involvement has grown. 'In addition to normal participation by some banks, we think it reasonable to assume purchases by pension funds have increased due to the rise in stock prices,' the rates strategist adds. The 10-year JGB futures are 0.09 yen lower at Y139.03. (

JGB Futures Fall as Investors Digest Japanese Economic Data

Japan's industrial output grew modestly in May, however, this recovery could be temporary owing to U.S. tariffs' impact and worries over a global slowdown. 'All told, we suspect that Japan's economy at best stagnated this quarter,' Marcel Thieliant, head of Asia-Pacific at Capital Economics, says in commentary, noting this morning's and other data. Ten-year JGB futures are down 0.19 yen at 138.88 yen. (

JGB Futures Edge Lower as Investors Assess Mixed Signals
0009 GMT — JGB futures edge lower in the early Tokyo session as investors assess mixed signals.

On the other hand, market participants could be concerned over Japanese inflationary pressures that could increase due to the higher oil prices caused by the U.S. attacks. Ten-year JGB futures are 0.14 yen lower at 139.29 yen. (
