JPMorgan Asset Management buys long-term sovereign bonds

JPMorgan Asset Management began buying long-term government bonds in the United States, Japan and Australia on September 17, 2026, saying recent sell-offs had pushed prices to attractive levels and that the move reflected an opportunistic reweighting of duration.
