The Impact of Japan's Interest Rate Hike on Global Recession Prediction

No single indicator predicts the timing of the next global recession better than the Bank of Japan starting to raise interest rates.

Last year, Japan's inflation rate was 3% without raising interest rates, but now it's raising interest rates when it's over 2%? Don't you think it's strange?

Okay, now Japan has finally raised interest rates

If Japanese yen interest rate hike + U.S. dollar interest rate cut are a combination punch

No matter what the inflation in the United States is now!

The outcome of tonight's interest rate discussion is likely to be dovish, and interest rates will be cut in the middle of the year!

The United States suspended interest rate increases in 2006, and Japan raised interest rates for the first time in 2006.

The United States cut interest rates for the first time in 2007, and Japan raised interest rates for the second time in 2007.

The crisis came in 2008

If Japan does not raise interest rates, the United States will not cut interest rates.

Don't say that Japan's interest rate hike is not serious. Japan's interest rate hike is small and has no impact.

The chart below shows the number of interest rate hikes in Japan from 1988 to 2024.

Three times in total

First Southeast Asian Crisis

The second tech bubble

The third economic crisis of 2008

The second and third interest rate hikes did not reach 0.5%.

It exploded. Do you still dislike Japan’s 0.1% interest rate increase?

No one is smarter than the central bank, which has increased its holdings of gold for 16 consecutive months, the longest in history.
