Don't remind me again today

The Bank of Japan Governor spoke this time, and the market's nerves immediately tightened. Do you remember that brutal blow at the end of July last year? The wave of leveraged liquidations, liquidity drying up completely, a definite black swan level trauma. So this time, when he gave a slight hint, everyone immediately thought of that nightmare.



In the past, when you asked him if he would raise interest rates, he would always play it coy, and in the end, he indeed took no action— the market has become accustomed to this routine.

But this time the tone has changed drastically. From last week to today, both statements were straightforward: they will raise interest rates when the conditions are ripe.

The trouble is that Japan's inflation is still hovering around 2%, and price pressures remain. Investors see this signal and instantly realize that the hawkish stance is accelerating to the surface.

Global capital actually does not want to see Japan tighten its policies, but the domestic price pressure leaves the Central Bank with little room to maneuver.

Here it comes again, is the Bank of Japan really going to take action this time? I still remember last year's liquidation wave, and the tone sounds a bit scary now...

Last July's wave was really scary, and now the hawkish signals are coming again. It feels like the Bank of Japan is really going to take action this time.

Wow, here we go again? I haven't even recovered from last year's wave, this guy really wants to stir things up. The Japanese Central Bank is pulling a surprise attack like this, global funds must be feeling the pain... With inflation stuck at 2%, the Central Bank is really cornered, no options left. This time it's not just playing Taiji, they're showing their knives directly, looks like they're really going for it. Is another wave of Get Liquidated coming? I really can't handle another round... The leveraged traders must be trembling now, is history about to repeat itself? The hawks turned around too quickly, the market hasn't even reacted, and now it’s tough.
