The recent jump in Japanese government bond yields is making the selloff in Treasurys look tame by comparison, said Renaissance Macro's Jeff DeGraaf in a report shared with MarketWatch


on Wednesday. DeGraaf's note arrived shortly after the yield on the 30-year Japanese government bond touched its highest level in 25 years. Yields in Japanese government bonds have been


moving higher since early May. "Our yield impact model remains neutral to SPX at these levels, but the rise in JGBs appears to be having an adverse impact on Japan’s Nikkei which has


stalled at natural resistance levels," he said.
