[Insiders: Bank of Japan May Slightly Reduce Purchases of Super-Long-Term Japanese Government Bonds in Q4] According to a report by Jinse Finance, three insiders revealed that despite the recent rise in yields on super-long-term Japanese government bonds, the Bank of Japan may slightly reduce its purchases of such bonds in the fourth quarter. This move would align with market expectations and adhere to the Bank of Japan's guidance—prioritizing the reduction of bond purchases for maturities where its holdings account for a higher proportion of total issuance. They stated that the Bank of Japan will make a final decision on September 30, which could be influenced by the results of the 20-year bond auction on September 17 and the extent of fluctuations in super-long-term Japanese government bond yields. If the Bank of Japan does reduce its purchases of super-long-term bonds at that time, it would mark the second adjustment since the reduction in the second quarter. (Jin10)
