Japan's 2-year bond yield just hit 1% — first time we've seen this level since way back in 2008. That's a 17-year high mark for the short-term rate, signaling shifting expectations in Japanese monetary policy landscape.

Is the Bank of Japan about to loosen its grip? A yield we haven't seen in seventeen years, it feels like a change is coming.

Japan's 2-year yield breaks 1%? Damn, it took 17 years to get back to this level. I almost went all in on Japanese bonds during that 2008 wave, and now it seems the liquidation price was really damn perfect.

Japan's bond market has really changed, I haven't seen this number since 2017... It feels like the Central Bank needs to change its mind.

The Bank of Japan can no longer hold back, returning to 1% after 17 years? It seems the battle to defend the yen is really about to begin.
