The Japanese economy amazes me. It just staggers from one crisis to another but always just manages to keep going:
Japan’s economy shrank 1.8% on an annualized basis in Q3 2025, a smaller decline than the 2.5% drop expected and a reversal from the slightly revised 2.3% growth in Q2, flash data showed.
Japan’s 10-year government bond yield climbed above 1.71% on Monday, reaching its highest level since 2008 amid stronger-than-expected growth data.
More investing news out of Japan here, and it’s probably bad, but I do not understand bond markets enough to know if this is something to worry about, either from a money market standpoint, domestic bonds (for me, specifically munis), or equity markets.
