The Bank of Japan raised interest rates by 0.25%, bringing them to the highest level in 17 years. While a similar move in August 2024 triggered a sharp market selloff due to traders covering massive yen short positions, this time the impact is expected to be muted. CFTC data shows the yen short float peaked in July, with traders already deleveraging in anticipation of a hike. Additionally, the strong U.S. Dollar Index (DXY), near 2022 levels, could benefit from this, as higher rates abroad may help balance currency strength, improving the U.S. trade deficit. The USD/JPY remains largely unchanged in response.

Among the highlights of the order, it mandates the creation of a "Crypto Working Group" to draft supportive legislation and calls for a study on the operational aspects of a Bitcoin reserve. Trump, in his remarks, stated, "We're going to make America the leader in cryptocurrency.

BIG TECH WEEKLY | Gains On Stargate, Microsoft Tops Apple After Earnings?
Big-Tech’s PerformanceTrump's inauguration this week captured the world's attention and entered the 2.0 era, with a considerable number of policy announcements made as soon as he took office, but so far there has been no major surprises in relation to his previous announcements, and the market has come to expect them.In addition to the obvious changes to sectors such as immigration, energy, and digital currencies, there was also a call for the Federal Reserve to "lower interest rates" (although this is unlikely to be successful, as the Fed is an independent private institution).But the point is, through the president's influence shouting, will be a certain degree of distortion of the market on the current expectations of rate cuts, and even some members of the Federal Reserve will also hav
