Japan's benchmark 10-year government bond yield surged to 2.950 percent on Monday, marking its highest level since October 1996 amid rising bets on central bank rate hikes.
The bond yield moves inversely to its price, meaning the sharp rise reflects intensified selling pressure on the government bonds.
Japanese media analysis suggests that rising market expectations for an earlier-than-expected interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan, coupled with a chain reaction triggered by rising long-term interest rates in the United States, are the main reasons for the recent sell-off and price decline of the Japanese government bonds.
