ME News report: On May 18 (UTC+8), Ichihiro Sasaki, Research Director at Phillip Securities Japan, said that at current yield levels, foreign investors may find it easier to buy Japanese government bonds. If domestic investors sell foreign bonds and switch to buying Japanese government bonds, he would not be surprised. He said, “From an exchange-rate perspective, foreign capital inflows into Japanese bonds could lead to yen appreciation, which may put some pressure on the upward movement of Japan’s stock market.” Rising yields on long-term Japanese government bonds suggest that policy interest rates may rise, which would be a negative factor for the stock market. If interest rates rise too quickly, it will have a significant negative impact on the stock market. Against the backdrop of rising oil prices, which is fueling concerns about inflation, this cautious sentiment is intensifying. (Source: Jin10)
