JGBs Edge Lower, Weighed by Fiscal Fears

0025 GMT — JGBs edge lower in the morning Tokyo session, weighed by fiscal fears. These worries in Japan are pushing up 30-year yields worldwide, ING's rates strategists say in a research report. 'We find it difficult to find factors that would bring a halt to the strong upward momentum in 30-year global rates from a structural perspective,' the strategists add. Yields on ultralong JGBs have risen sharply in recent sessions amid concerns over a possible issuance increase to finance a likely stimulus package by a new Japanese government. The 10-year JGB yield is up 0.5bp at 1.490%. (

JGBs Consolidate as Investors Weigh Tokyo CPI Data

0013 GMT — JGBs consolidate in the early Tokyo session as investors weigh Japanese economic data released earlier. The data showed consumer inflation in the Tokyo metropolitan area eased in June but remained firmly above the BOJ's 2% target. Also, there may be lingering supply-demand worries, two members of BofA Global Research say in a research report. While Japan's Finance Ministry unveiled super-long JGB issuance reductions, the ministry also opted to boost issuance of sovereign debt with two-year and shorter tenors, the members note. BofA maintains its view that net JGB supply will gradually increase. The 10-year JGB yield is 0.5 bp higher at 1.420%. (

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 one hand, Japan's sovereign debt will probably be supported by potential safe-haven demand driven by the U.S. strikes on Iran over the weekend. 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. (

Oil Edges Lower Amid Lingering Supply Concerns

0007 GMT — Oil edges lower in the early morning Asian session amid lingering supply concerns. Prospects of further increases in production by OPEC continue to hang over the market, ANZ Research analysts say in a note. The group approved another output hike of 411,000 barrels per day for July. 'We suspect OPEC is taking the opportunity of stronger seasonal demand and a lack of response from non-OPEC producers to regain market share,' ANZ adds. Front-month WTI crude oil futures are 0.2% lower at $63.26/bbl; front-month Brent crude oil futures are 0.1% lower at $65.26/bbl. (

JGB Futures Edge Lower; BOJ's Planned Purchases May Underpin Market

0014 GMT — JGB futures edge lower in price terms in the morning Tokyo session on possible position adjustments. However, the Bank of Japan's planned purchases today of four parts of the JGB yield curve, including the over 10-year and up to 25-year sector, may underpin the domestic bond market. Also, Tuesday's strong outcome of the Finance Ministry's auction of 10-year JGBs could provide additional reassurance to potential bond investors. The 10-year JGB futures are down by 0.12 yen at Y139.04. (
