This week, yields on 10-year and 20-year Japanese government bonds surged to multi-decade highs as renewed concerns arose about Prime Minister Sanae Takaichis commitment to fiscal discipline and monetary policy normalization. On Wednesday, the spread between 10-year and 2-year JGB yields widened to 143 basis points, the highest level since 2004, reflecting heightened market concerns about long-term inflation and price risks, while expectations for short-term Bank of Japan rate hikes weakened. Kento Minami, senior economist at Daiwa Securities, stated, "The recent steepening of the yield curve is a warning sign from investors, indicating a gap between the risks the market is measuring and the governments fiscal and monetary policies."On July 9th, in a report titled "Investment Strategy: Going Long on Chinas AI Value Chain," Goldman Sachs analyst Louis Mille wrote, "Chinas AI industry has officially come into our view." The reason given is that "the unprecedented combination of massive government support, surging global demand, and structural capital rotation makes Chinas AI one of the most compelling growth stories in the technology sector today." Goldman Sachs presented three key points to support its investment argument: Chinese AI companies market capitalization is severely mismatched with market size, leaving ample room for valuation upside; the Chinese AI industry chain possesses unique competitive advantages that are currently undervalued by the market; and the Chinese AI sector is outperforming other Chinese assets, with funds structurally increasing their allocation.On July 9th, it was learned that XPeng Group held its first all-staff meeting for its Robotaxi business and announced the official launch of employee internal testing.

By providing complete solutions, XPeng will promote the global deployment of Robotaxi.

In the early Asian session, the AUD/JPY currency pair is bouncing violently in a narrow range below the resistance level of 90.00. Before the Bank of Japan introduces its first monetary policy of CY2023, the risk barometer indicates a sideways auction (BoJ). The AUD/JPY exchange rate reflects the consolidation of the AUD/USD, indicating an uncertain risk profile.

 

Investors anticipate that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will not alter its policy stance on Friday, as doing so would increase financial market risk and hinder efforts to boost inflation. Previously, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced that the central bank will review the negative side effects of the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy, generating the impression that the central bank is eager to abandon the easy policy.

 

The experts at Standard Charted expect the Bank of Japan to hold both the policy balance rate and the 10-year yield goal at their present levels of -0.1% and 0%, respectively. The recent decision to expand the 10-year JGB band to +/-50 bps (from +/-25 bps) will be evaluated by policymakers at the December meeting.

 

The replacement of current Governor of the Bank of Japan Haruhiko Kuroda will be widely followed. The next BoJ governor nominee is anticipated to be presented to the Japanese parliament on February 10, Reuters reported on Tuesday. Amamiya, Nakaso, and Yamaguchi are regarded as leading C.banking candidates.
