On April 22, Japan's government bond prices experienced a significant decline following two consecutive days of gains. According to Jin10, this downturn was driven by uncertainties surrounding peace negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, coupled with rising oil prices, which have reignited inflation concerns. The yield on Japan's 10-year government bonds increased by approximately 2 basis points to 2.4%, while the 30-year bond yield rose by about 1.5 basis points to 3.570%. Katsutoshi Inadome, a senior strategist at Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Asset Management, commented that the rise in yields is primarily fueled by the persistent high oil prices due to the volatile situation in the Middle East.
