How Japan’s Bond Market Is Shaking Global Markets | José Torres

Did Japan’s bond market turmoil help trigger last week’s global market sell-off? In this clip from The Torres Report, IBKR Senior Economist José Torres answers host Todd M.

That surge has shaken global sovereign debt markets, lifting yields in the U.S. and beyond and challenging the traditional “yen carry trade,” where investors borrow in low-cost yen to fund higher-yielding assets abroad — a dynamic that historically supported U.S. Treasuries and risk assets.
