#MarketUpdate 🇯🇵📊
Japan raises interest rates… but the market hasn't panicked yet.
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) raised its policy interest rate to 1%. This is the highest level seen since 1995.
But the real point isn't the rate hike itself.
The BOJ is now taking a firmer stance on inflation, a weak yen, and rising cost pressures. Rising energy prices, producer costs, and high USD/JPY levels are accelerating Japan's exit from its long period of loose monetary policy.
The market's initial reaction was calm.
However, there are points to watch out for in the coming period:
• Movements in Japanese bond yields
• Potential unwinding of carry trade positions
• Impacts on Nasdaq and global risky assets
• Reaction of gold and emerging markets
Japan is entering a new era in monetary policy after many years.
Now the main question for the markets is:
Is the 1% interest rate level a peak, or the beginning of a new interest rate hike cycle by the BOJ? 👀

The market is in a waiting mode ahead of critical developments.
Tomorrow, all eyes will be on the Fed's interest rate decision. Following the decision, Kevin Warsh's speech will be closely watched by the markets. The interest rate path and future messages from central banks could be decisive in determining risk appetite.
Meanwhile, a historic decision came from Japan.
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) raised its policy interest rate by 25 basis points to 1%. This level is the highest interest rate seen since 1995.
The decision is considered a significant step in Japan's exit from its long-standing ultra-loose monetary policy.
The BOJ also announced that it will slow down its government bond purchase reduction program starting in April 2027, keeping monthly purchases at approximately 2 trillion yen.
Following the decision, strong movement was seen in the Japanese stock market. The Nikkei index rose quickly, adding approximately $82 billion in market value to the Japanese equity market.
Three main issues are now in the focus of the markets:
• The Fed's interest rate message
• Global liquidity outlook
• Central banks' new policy balance
Interest rate decisions remain one of the most important factors affecting not only traditional markets but all risky assets, including crypto.
The coming hours may be volatile. 📈
