Japanese investors' domestic shift may have minimal impact on Eurozone bonds, despite Bank of Japan's rate hike. Japanese investors hold 1% of bond markets in France, Belgium, & Netherlands, and have already halved holdings in European bonds since 2022. European Central Bank's rate cuts, declining hedging costs, & continued Japanese interest in foreign bonds suggest stable to positive flows into Eurozone bonds.
