-- Turmoil in Japan’s financial markets intensified Monday as the yen extended its rebound against the dollar to almost 13% from July’s low and stocks headed for a bear market. Yields on benchmark Japanese government bonds tumbled by the most in two decades.The intensity of the moves continued to take investors by surprise, hurting everyone from mom-and-pop traders of shares and currencies to large hedge funds and institutions.
