Font size

In anticipation of the extension of the Linear Chuo Shinkansen and Hokuriku Shinkansen lines to Osaka, development around Shin-Osaka Station is becoming more active. Lotte Holdings (HD, Tokyo) and Nomura Real Estate Development (Tokyo) plan to build a live music venue near the station, hoping to attract customers by taking advantage of the convenient transportation. Osaka Prefecture and city will also focus on urban development in the surrounding area. Expectations are high that Shin-Osaka will not only be a ``transfer station,'' but will be reborn as a lively area that can be seen as the ``gateway'' to Osaka.

“By becoming a place where a diverse range of people gather and experience excitement, we hope to create a new flow of people and liveliness, and contribute to the further development and revitalization of the town.”

Daisaku Matsuo, president of Nomura Real Estate Development, said the following at a press conference in Osaka on the 3rd.

The company and Lotte HD announced the construction of "BEAT PARK OSAKA," a live music venue that will accommodate about 1,600 people and will be located about a 3-minute walk from Shin-Osaka Station. Aiming to open in March 2020, it is expected to attract more than 300,000 visitors annually in the future. There are few live houses in Osaka that can accommodate more than 1,000 people, so we expect people to come from far away.

SoftBank Group issues 1 trillion yen worth of corporate bonds from individual investors, with interest rates rising at record scale

In September 2019, SoftBank Group borrowed 400 billion yen in unsecured corporate bonds from individual investors at an annual rate of 1.380%, and after repayment on September 17th, it will borrow 1 trillion yen in new debt. The corporate bond for individuals announced on August 24th has a term of 7 years, a tentative interest rate of 4.30% to 4.90% per year, and a tote bag will be given for each purchase of 1 million yen. The reasons for borrowing from individuals at high interest rates despite the 83 trillion yen value of the company's stock holdings are cited as collateralized loans for Arm and Softbank shares, adjustments through T-Mobile's color contract, and a future investment of $64.6 billion in OpenAI.

Long-term government bond interest rates rise globally, and remain at high levels in Europe as well. Japanese and U.S. finance ministers confirm cooperation to stabilize the market.

While interest rates on long-term government bonds are rising worldwide, the yield on 10-year government bonds in the UK remains at 5.2%, the highest level since August 2007. France and Germany also reached high levels, reflecting concerns about a resurgence of inflation due to rising interest rates in Japan and the US, high energy prices due to the worsening situation in the Middle East, and a sense of caution about fiscal expansion. Mizuho Bank points out that the high proportion of British bonds owned by foreign investors makes them more likely to be linked to global interest rate trends. In addition, the ECB remains cautious, saying that the concentration of investment in AI and the increase in corporate bond issuance by US IT giants could loosen the supply and demand for government bonds, and that it is necessary to carefully monitor the impact.

Fed Director Waller expresses support for keeping interest rates unchanged depending on August inflation indicators

Fed Director Waller said in an online lecture that if the August price index confirms that inflation is slowing down, he will support keeping the policy rate unchanged at the FOMC meeting in the middle of this month. He welcomed the latest indicators, saying, ``We are finally starting to see some signs of slowing inflation,'' and asserted that initial concerns have not arisen, although he cited high energy prices and increased investment due to the AI ​​boom as inflation risk factors. He expressed an optimistic view of the economic situation, citing continued growth in consumer spending due to high stock prices and a stable labor market, and declared that he would focus on August's CPI and other factors when making monetary policy decisions.
