JGB Futures Edge Lower; BOJ's Planned Purchases May Underpin Market
0014 GMT — JGB futures edge lower in price terms in the morning Tokyo session on possible position adjustments. However, the Bank of Japan's planned purchases today of four parts of the JGB yield curve, including the over 10-year and up to 25-year sector, may underpin the domestic bond market. Also, Tuesday's strong outcome of the Finance Ministry's auction of 10-year JGBs could provide additional reassurance to potential bond investors. The 10-year JGB futures are down by 0.12 yen at Y139.04. (

JGB Futures Rise; Market Likely to Track Gains in U.S. Treasurys
0006 GMT — JGB futures rise in early Tokyo session, with Japan's government bond market likely to track overnight price gains in U.S. Treasurys. Both JGBs and Treasurys tend to move in tandem. The Finance Ministry's auction today of 2.6 trillion yen in two-year sovereign notes may garner interest from investors, analysts say. 'Recent 2-year and T-bill auctions have cleared smoothly, or even drawn solid demand, and we expect a certain degree of collateral demand' at today's sale, SMBC Nikko Securities' Lisa Mochizuki says in a research report. Also, 'factoring in the fact that there's limited scope for 2-year yield to rise further ahead, we expect a solid result,' the junior analyst adds. Ten-year JGB futures are 0.31 yen higher at 139.26 yen. (

JGB Futures Fall; Market Likely to Track Declines in U.S. Treasurys
0019 GMT—JGB futures fall in early Tokyo trade, with domestic government bond market likely to track Friday's price declines in U.S. Treasurys. Both JGBs and Treasurys tend to move in tandem. Markets don't seem to have fully digested the news of the last Friday's downgrade in the U.S. credit rating, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities' fixed income strategists say in a research report. Potential further selling of Treasurys during Asian trading hours is likely to be a headwind for the market, the strategists add. JGB 10-year futures are down 0.11 yen at 139.42 yen. (
