The relation between bond and equity is all screwed up ... I don't think we can get much out of it. Anyway, JGB 10yr, whose slide causes the fire sale in Japan, can't go down anymore!
Of course the JGB 10yr's slide was due to the slide in US 10yr, which was then caused by the Fed statement. So all evils lead back to the Fed!
We are still waiting on the side line. Last night's developments in Japan shows that any driving force to weaken JPY and strengthen NIKKEI cannot come from the JGB outflow. BOJ DOES NOT ALLOW IT!
So risk traders have to rely on other mechanisms. The decline of US 10yr bond is probably the only way. And this can rely only on stronger US and EURO economy if FED decides to start taper its QE in the fall.
Let's see whether US 10yr can really reverse its down trend here. If not, good news for NIKKEI bulls and JPY bears!
I simply couldn't resist the urge to buy a dip in NKD. Okay, I'm using one contract to test water, with a trailing stop of 150 points, roughly at 14000 ...
