Japan 20-Year JGB Yield Hits 2.891% 27-Year High: Carry Trade Unwind Tightens Liquidity; BTC Sensitivity and Volatility Rise
According to @BullTheoryio, Japan’s 20-year JGB yield reached 2.891% and the 10-year approached 1.84%, marking a breakout from decades of yield suppression and triggering a domestic capital reallocation, source: @BullTheoryio. Rising local yields and high FX hedging costs make foreign bonds less attractive for Japanese investors, driving repatriation flows and initiating a carry trade unwind, source: @BullTheoryio. As positions are unwound, investors sell foreign bonds, buy yen, and face higher carry costs, creating a feedback loop that lifts global yields and tightens liquidity across risk assets, source: @BullTheoryio. The exit of Japanese buyers from U.S. Treasuries contributes to higher Treasury yields and tighter global financial conditions, pressuring crypto and other risk markets, source: @BullTheoryio. Crypto reacts first due to 24/7 trading, with BTC and altcoins becoming more sensitive to JGB moves and experiencing elevated volatility during unwind phases, source: @BullTheoryio. |
