Feb 16
0024 GMT - JGB futures edge higher early Tokyo trade as investors assess Japan's 1st estimate of 4Q GDP data released earlier. On the one hand, the 0.1% GDP growth missed the 0.4% growth tipped by a poll of economists by data provider Quick, which could spur speculation that the BOJ could slow its rate-increase pace. On the other hand, however, the data might encourage the Japanese government to roll out more economic-stimulus measures that could worsen the country's fiscal situation. Ten-year JGB futures are 0.19 yen higher at 131.99 yen. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
