Yields move inversely to bond prices. Live Events Japan's ruling coalition lost control of the upper house in Sunday's election, a widely anticipated setback that further eroded the authority of Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba , who lost his majority in the more powerful lower house in October. However, Ishiba has vowed to stay on, warning against creating a political vacuum as he faces an August 1 deadline for a trade deal with the United States . While the ballot does not directly decide the fate of Ishiba's administration, it heaps pressure on the embattled leader and could either imply policy paralysis or a bigger fiscal deficit , depending on the ruling party's next moves and the opposition's strength. Japan has the largest debt burden in the developed world at about 250% of its GDP. The 10-year yield pushed to the highest since October 2008 last Tuesday after opinion polls increasingly pointed to gains for opposition parties, which support debt-funded consumption tax cuts to alleviate the burden of the rising cost of living. The 30-year yield shot to an all-time high of 3.2%.
