Japan's 10-year government bond yield surged above 1.71% on Monday, marking its highest level since 2008, buoyed by stronger-than-anticipated growth statistics. In the three months leading up to September, Japan's economy contracted by 0.4% quarter-on-quarter, overturning a 0.6% growth seen in the second quarter, yet surpassing market predictions of a 0.6% decline. This increase occurred despite Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's appeal for the Bank of Japan to sustain low interest rates. Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda highlighted robust consumption, bolstered by increased household incomes and an improving labor market, while mentioning that the underlying inflation is inching towards the Bank's 2% target, thus hinting at a potential rate hike in the near future. Concurrently, increasing fiscal concerns in Japan, driven by expectations of assertive stimulus strategies, further exerted upward pressure on Japanese Government Bond (JGB) yields.
