JGBS: It has been a relatively quiet session for the space, with JGB futures
finishing the morning session at high, as global bonds have ticked higher.
- It is worth noting that JGB futures had little reaction to the burst of risk
on trade late in U.S. dealing on Friday.
- Japanese lifer Fukoku Mutual has urged the BOJ not to worry about the recent
uptick in JGB yields, stressing that 1.0% yields in the 30-Year zone would
trigger demand from the sector.
- Traders will focus on 20-Year JGB supply, due Tuesday, and a liquidity
enhancement auction for JGBs with 5-15.5 years until maturity on Thursday, ahead
of Japanese CPI data due on Friday. Participants will also look to the Fed's
annual Jackson Hole Symposium later in the week, in addition to the usual Rinban
operations.
