Bank of Japan Signals Rate Hike Ahead of Expectations

Original: Japan's Central Bank Signals Rate Hike Ahead of Market Expectati

The Bank of Japan has signalled that it may raise interest rates sooner than markets had anticipated. The move marks another step away from Japan's long-running ultra-loose monetary policy, and investors are likely to reassess their expectations for the yen, bond yields and Japanese equities as the possibility of an earlier hike firms up.

Why now: An earlier-than-expected rate signal from the Bank of Japan has immediate implications for global markets and currency positions.
