JGB Market Performance: Japanese Government Bonds (JGBs) are consolidating in the morning Tokyo session but may follow the recent declines seen in U.S. Treasurys.
Yield Trends: The recent rise in JGB yields is described as "unchecked," but analysts from SMBC Nikko Securities believe this trend is unlikely to continue.
BOJ's Rate Decisions: The Bank of Japan (BOJ) is expected to assess the impact of the U.S. economic slowdown before making any decisions on interest rate hikes.
Current Yield Status: The yield on the 10-year JGB remains stable at 1.615%.
