The US-Japan trade protocol creates space for the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates this year.

Abstract generation in progress

According to sources, the trade protocol reached between U.S. President Trump and Japan has opened up space for the Bank of Japan to raise interest rates again this year. The Bank of Japan may begin to convey this outlook by issuing a less pessimistic view on the economic outlook.

However, four sources familiar with the thoughts of the Japanese Central Bank said that it is hard to say that a rate hike is a done deal, as the timing of the rate hike depends on whether the economy can withstand the impact of U.S. tariffs.

A source said: "As the clouds hanging over U.S. trade policy dissipate, the Bank of Japan may see room for interest rate hikes this year." A second source said: "Not all trade-related uncertainties have been eliminated," he added, noting that the Bank of Japan must carefully examine data before the end of autumn to look for clues on how U.S. tariffs are affecting the economy.

Look at the interest rate hike, look at the interest rate hike.

Don't miss this opportunity, my friends. Positioning yourself early in long positions on the yen is the real key to wealth.

The last interest rate hike was hundreds of years ago, right?
