@ginaortiz667: Japan’s next rate hike could reshape the yen and markets. The Bank of Japan is widely expected to raise its policy rate by 0.25 percentage point to 1.25% at its September 17–18 meeting, a level Japan hasn’t seen in more than three decades. With inflation pressures elevated and the yen recently strengthening, investors are watching Governor Kazuo Ueda for clues on the pace of future hikes. The decision could have major implications for borrowing costs, the yen and Japan’s broader economy. #Japan #BOJ #BankOfJapan #Yen #JPY
