In Zahlen
The Japanese yen retreated to its lowest level in forty years, rising above the 162 level against the US dollar. This decline coincides with the yield gap between US and Japanese ten-year government bonds dropping to the bottom of the cycle. This situation is considered a significant anomaly that clearly contradicts traditional economic models.
Under normal conditions, such macroeconomic developments were expected to paint a different picture for the yen. However, the Japanese yen has lost its traditional safe-haven status. Investors expecting a trend reversal by relying on long-standing market rules may face great disappointment.
The signs of dispersion in the Japanese bond market and the weak performance of the yen are also having an impact on global financial balances. The fact that the references familiar to old markets have now lost their validity makes a new evaluation process mandatory for international investors.
