Will the Bank of Japan continue to raise interest rates? Ueda Kazuo: Let's see the effect of 0.75% first.

Question

【ChainWen】The Governor of the Bank of Japan, Ueda Kazuo, recently revealed a key signal: they will not rush to continue raising interest rates.

According to the latest news, Ueda Kazuo stated that they will first assess the specific impact of raising the interest rate to 0.75% on the Japanese economy and prices, and then decide whether to continue raising rates.

This change in attitude is quite noteworthy. It is important to understand that the central bank’s interest rate hike movements directly influence global asset allocation—such as the US-Japan interest rate differential, exchange rate fluctuations, and the attractiveness of risk assets. For those interested in macro trends and asset flows, this is an important reference signal.

In simple terms, the Bank of Japan is currently taking a cautious approach of “step by step” rather than firmly continuing to raise rates. This reserved stance reflects the central bank’s uncertainty about the current economic situation.

Observing again, this time the Bank of Japan is really timid, stopping at 0.75% to see the effects. What are they afraid of?

Ueda&#39;s move is to stabilize the market, otherwise the yen will soar again... As the interest rate differential between the US and Japan narrows, the arbitrage trades will explode.

tbh the BoJ's doing what most institutions should've done ages ago—pausing to actually measure impact instead of mechanically tightening. the adoption curve for rate hikes isn't linear, you know? they're reading the network effects properly this time

Oh no, the Bank of Japan is really being timid this time, taking it step by step... It seems like 0.75% scared them.

The Bank of Japan's recent move is just testing the market; whether 0.75% can hold remains to be seen. This kind of hesitant feeling still has a significant impact on the US dollar and yen.

Standing you up again? The Bank of Japan's recent moves are really disappointing. I just want to know when we'll finally see a real interest rate hike.
