TOKYO -- Bond yields in the Asia-Pacific region rose on Thursday, as political parties in Germany agreed to loosen the government's fiscal rules, inducing a bond market sell-off around the world.
Japan's benchmark 10-year government bold yield rose to 1.515%, its highest point since June 2009, up 0.08 point from the previous day and 0.415 point, year-to-date. Bond yields move inversely to prices.
