  • JGB yields fall, futures rise as BOJ keeps bond buying steady

    Japanese government bond futures rose in extended trading while bond yields declined and the yen plumbed fresh 34-year lows on Friday after the Bank of Japan confirmed that its bond purchase amounts would remain unchanged for now. Investors had been primed for a tapering of bond buying by the central bank after Jiji news agency reported overnight that policymakers would consider measures to reduce purchases at the two-day policy meeting that concluded in the early Tokyo afternoon. In the end the BOJ kept its target rate unchanged as expected but issued a simplified statement that removed a reference to buying JGBs at a pace of about 6 trillion yen ($38.3 billion) per month, leaving some doubts in market participants' minds about the fate of the bond-purchase program.

  • Couple renovating cottage discover 200-year-old well underneath hallway

    SWLNwell - By Adam Dutton A couple were stunned to find a secret 200-year-old well underneath their hallway when they began renovating their cottage. Victoria Ellington, 36, and her husband Andrew, 40, were amazed when they discovered the 27ft hole by the front door. Once explored, they found that the well, which is thought to be centuries-old, still contained crystal-clear water. The couple, from Redcar, North Yorks., couldn’t bear to cover up the feature so they decided to find a way to incorporate it into building. After months of hard work, Victoria and Andrew managed to install a pump to create their very own wishing well, covered by protective glass. The couple now rent the beach-front property, called Bute Cottage, to holidaymakers who can enjoy the quirky water feature. Mum-of-two Victoria said: “We bought the cottage during the 2020 Covid lockdown and Andrew, who is a builder, started renovating it. “We were planning to add an extension and build a family home but the foundations started slipping and we knew something was up. “One day Andrew found this deep hole and realised it was quite a deep well right on top of the property by the front door. “He was digging at the foundations and all the soil was falling into this hole. “He just sent me a photo and said: 'Oh my god, have you seen this?' “We knew then that we couldn’t build an extension so Andrew just decided to make it part of the building and we could rent the cottage out.” Instead of paving over the well the couple covered it with a glass walkway and lined the walls of the shaft with lights. Victoria, mum to Oscar five, and Henry, nine, said: “Our sons were excited about having a wishing well so we thought we should make that a reality. "We've put lights down the walls of the well and the glass is toughened. “We can pump water into the well and we’ve got a little slot for people to make wishes. “You can see right down to the bottom. Andrew tried to measure a few times and I think it is around 27ft deep." The couple completed the renovation earlier this month and now rent the two-bedroom cottage out for £629-a-week. Victoria added: "The well makes it a bit different. “When I saw it I was totally blown away and every time I see it I just totally love it." ENDS
