0027 GMT - JGBs edge lower in price terms ahead of the Japanese Finance Ministry's auction of about 800 billion yen in 20-year government bonds. JGB yields have clearly risen, but investors may refrain from aggressive bidding amid increasing political uncertainty in Japan, Citi Research's Tomohisa Fujiki says in a research report. The ministry's liquidity tap auctions could be a better opportunity for investors to build up duration in the super-long sector, the rates strategist adds. The JGB five-year yield is up 0.5bp at 1.190%; yield on No. 379 10-year issue is up 0.5bp at 1.655%. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
