Fed Raises Rates, BOJ Hike Anticipated
Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. The yen's sharp drop after the Federal Reserve's hawkish hike is raising the stakes for the Bank of Japan's policy meeting Friday, with strategists warning the currency could weaken further unless officials convince markets that more tightening is coming. The Fed lifted borrowing costs Wednesday for the first time since 2023 and projected further increases, prompting traders to price three additional hikes by the middle of next year. That threatens to keep the US-Japan rate gap wide even as the BOJ is expected to raise its own policy rate this week. We speak to Bloomberg's FX and Rates Strategist David Finnerty. And for more reaction to the Fed's decision, Bloomberg's David Ingles spoke to Former St. Louis Fed President James Bullard from the sidelines of the BNP Paribas APAC Global Markets Conference.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Markets Await Fed Decision
Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. The Federal Reserve is expected to lift interest rates on Wednesday for the first time since 2023 as policymakers lose confidence that inflation will cool sufficiently without at least a nudge from the central bank. Meantime, bond traders have piled into bearish positions ahead of Wednesday's Federal Reserve meeting, betting that the Treasury selloff driving yields to their highest in almost two decades will continue. The benchmark US 10-year yield rose to its highest level since 2007 on Tuesday as traders braced for the Fed to hike interest rates in response to inflation worries. We speak to Lianting Tu, Bloomberg's Managing Editor for Asia Equities. And for more on the market outlook ahead of the Fed's Decision, Bloomberg's David Ingles and Yvonne Man spoke to BNP Paribas Global Head of Markets 360 and Chief Economist Luigi Speranza.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
