๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต BoJ holds at 1.25% but leans hawkish, 8-1 vote with a dissent for a hike, faster ETF sales

  • ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต The Bank of Japan kept its short-term policy rate at 1.25%, as expected, in an 8-1 vote (BoJ, newswires, )
  • ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Board member Takata proposed raising the rate to 1.5%, which the board rejected

FO view: Ueda's tone at decides whether that sticks.

Not investment advice.
