It is believed that predictions that the Bank of Japan will decide to raise interest rates at the next monetary policy meeting to be held in September are heating up. In view of the “coordinated intervention” implemented by the Japanese and US governments to correct the depreciation of the yen and the appreciation of the US dollar, the market has increased its efforts to absorb the possibility of interest rate hikes at the September meeting. US Treasury Secretary Bezent emphasized the importance of monetary policy, and this statement also supported market predictions. According to data from the East Short Research Company, a private think tank, on July 29, the day before the Bank of Japan's July meeting and the Japan-US coordinated intervention, the probability that the market digested the central bank's decision to raise interest rates in September was only about 30%, but it rose to about 60% on August 5. The company's chief economist Kato Izuru analyzed, “Due to coordinated intervention, predictions that the US will probably ask Japan to raise interest rates have been strengthened.”
