🚨 BREAKING: Japan’s 40-year government bond yield has surged to 4%, marking its highest level since 2007.
This move signals growing discomfort among investors with holding Japan’s long-term debt. Market confidence is clearly starting to crack.
With Japan carrying one of the world’s largest debt burdens, even a modest rise in yields sharply increases interest costs. That means more borrowing to service debt, tighter fiscal conditions, and increasing pressure across the economy.
Instead of fueling growth, more capital will be diverted toward interest payments.
At this point, Bank of Japan intervention is no longer optional — it’s becoming inevitable.
