0600 GMT - JGBs were mixed in the afternoon Tokyo session after the Japanese Finance Ministry's auction of 40-year sovereign debt. The bid-to-cover ratio stood at 3.10, higher than the 2.82 at the prior 40-year JGB sale in July, indicating solid demand. However, JGB prices may have been somewhat weighed by rising oil prices that lead to higher inflation in Japan and could prompt a fast pace of BOJ rate increases. The two-year JGB yield was down 0.5 bps at 1.960%, the 10-year yield was little changed at 3.085%, and the 30-year yield was unchanged at 4.170%.
