A turning point in Japan\u2019s economy: <\/strong>The Bank of Japan hiked interest rates for the first time in 17 years on Tuesday, pushing its key interest rates to 0-0.1% from -0.1% \u2014 rates have been negative for eight years, the bank said in a statement (pdf)<\/a>. This marks a shift in its monetary easing policy which sought to encourage bank lending and restimulate Japan\u2019s deflationary economy. <\/p>\n

What prompted the rate hike? <\/strong>Japan\u2019s inflation rate has held above 2% for over a year, prompting the BOJ to assert on Tuesday that its long-time goal of stable 2% inflation was \u201cwithin sight.\u201d The BOJ had also faced pressure to end its monetary easing cycle which has been viewed as one cause of the decline in the value of the JPY against the USD. <\/p>\n

What next?<\/strong> \u201cIf trend inflation heightens a bit more, that may lead to an increase in short-term rates,\u201d the central bank\u2019s governor Kazuo Ueda said at a presser. The timeline for these rate hikes wasn\u2019t specified.<\/p>\n

The story got a lot of attention in the int\u2019l press: <\/font><\/strong>New York Times<\/a> | Reuters<\/a> | Financial Times<\/a> | Wall<\/a>Street Journal<\/a> | BBC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ALSO WORTH NOTING- Reddit IPO 5x oversubscribed:<\/strong> Social media platform Reddit is on track to reach its targeted USD 6.5 bn valuation following its 5x oversubscribed IPO. Reddit is looking to raise nearly USD 750 mn from its IPO. (Reuters<\/a>)<\/p>\n

THE MARKET THIS MORNING-<\/p>\n

It looks a lot like the start of most trading day before the Fed speaks: <\/strong>Asian shares are mixed slipped at the opening bell and have since made up their losses, with all four major benchmarks we track (the Nikkei, Hang Seng, Shanghai Composite, and Kospi) in the green at dispatch time. US and European futures were down slightly at dispatch time this morning as traders wait for the Federal Open Markets Committee to wrap up its two-day meeting. <\/p>\n
