🇯🇵 The Japan Nikkei 225 Index hits a record high, soaring 6% following Prime Minister Sanae Takashi's victory.
After Sanae Takashi's official win and appointment as Japan's Prime Minister, the Japanese stock market experienced a strong positive feedback, with the Nikkei 225 Index surging about 6% in a single day and reaching a new all-time high, indicating that the capital market is highly optimistic about her policy expectations. Sanae Takashi's style continues the Abe approach, which is "Abenomics 2.0." Key market focuses include: Opposition to premature rate hikes Continuing loose fiscal policy Supporting the Bank of Japan to maintain ultra-loose monetary policy So, the rise in the Nikkei can be seen as fulfilling these positive expectations. The previous rate hike was more of a "symbolic increase" and not part of a tightening cycle, unlike the Federal Reserve's consecutive rate hikes. On the contrary, through rate hikes, it can be indirectly observed that Japan: Can hike rates = Wage increases are real Can hike rates = Domestic demand is recovering Can hike rates = Inflation is no longer one-time input-driven 📈 This is understood in the stock market as: Nominal GDP growth + corporate income expansion. $BTC
