Japan Bonds Show Little Change
Published June 5th, 2007
Japan’s government bonds were little changed before the Ministry of Finance releases results of a 10- year securities sale.
The government set the highest coupon in seven months for its 1.9 trillion yen ($15.6 billion) auction of the debt, in line with a Bloomberg News survey of traders, analysts and investors. U.S. Treasuries yesterday rose the most in three weeks, narrowing the yield premium over Japanese debt.
