Japanese government bond (JGB) yields edged higher on Tuesday, tracking a rise in U.S. Treasury yields as oil prices recovered, while investors remained cautious ahead of speeches by senior central bank officials in Japan and the United States, Reuters reported.<\/p>\n

The benchmark 10-year JGB yield rose 1.5 basis points to 2.895%, after trading largely unchanged earlier in the session. Bond yields move inversely to prices.<\/p>\n

According to Reuters, the rise in Japanese yields was influenced by movements in U.S. Treasury yields and oil prices, with the domestic market lacking major market-moving cues. Oil prices steadied on Tuesday after falling more than 2% in the previous session, as investors assessed the potential impact of tougher U.S. secondary sanctions against Iran.Investors await BOJ signalsMarket participants are closely watching upcoming comments from Bank of Japan<\/a> Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino, who is scheduled to attend a meeting with local leaders in Saitama on Thursday.
Reuters reported that investors are looking for clues from Himino’s remarks about the possibility of another Bank of Japan interest rate hike at its September policy meeting. The BOJ’s policy outlook has remained a key driver for Japanese bond markets as investors assess the pace of monetary policy normalisation.

Further along the curve, the 20-year yield climbed 2 basis points to 3.765%, while the 30-year yield gained 1 basis point to 4.065%.<\/p>\n
