🇯🇵 BOJ HOLDS RATES – CARRY TRADE ALERT 🪙

The Bank of Japan kept interest rates unchanged at 0.75% on Jan 23, 2026, holding steady after December’s hike to 30-year highs 📊. GDP growth was revised up to 1%, but upcoming elections likely delayed further tightening. Markets are now watching the massive $1T+ yen carry trade flowing through crypto and global equities. If rate hikes resume around July, yen strength could trigger unwinds, pressuring risk assets 📉. With Japan holding over $1T in US Treasuries, potential capital repatriation adds another layer of volatility. Stay sharp.
