Japan 10-year bond yield slumps after Trump imposes bigger-than-expected tariffs
Apr 2, 2025 5:48 PM

TOKYO, April 3 (Reuters) - Japan's 10-year government

bond yield fell sharply on safe-haven bets amid worries that

U.S. President Donald Trump's bigger-than-expected wall of

tariffs would dampen the global economy.

The 10-year JGB yield fell 13 basis points

(bps) to 1.34%, its lowest level since February 26 and its

biggest drop since August 5, when bond and stock markets were

hit with their biggest swing since the 1987 Black Monday crash.

Trump said on Wednesday he would impose a 10% baseline

tariff on all imports to the U.S. and higher duties on dozens of

other countries.

Bonds with other maturities have not been traded as of 0005

GMT.
