đŻđ” Breaking News: Bank of Japan Hikes Interest Rates to 0.75% â Highest in Nearly 30 Years
đ Whatâs Happening:
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) continues to phase out its era of long-standing low interest rates.
This move indicates that domestic inflation and economic growth have achieved some level of stability.
âïž Why It Matters:
It could strengthen the Japanese Yen (JPY) and significantly impact the "Carry Trade" (borrowing cheap Yen to invest elsewhere).
This creates pressure on global liquidity and risk assets.
đ Market Signal: Short-term Bearish for Crypto & Stocks âĄ
Volatility may increase as investors unwind their Carry Trade positions.
Gold may see mixed results (balancing a stronger JPY against "risk-off" sentiment)
