Odaily Planet Daily News A sharp weakening of the yen may prompt the Bank of Japan to take action, as the Bank of Japan said in a report that it will continue to raise interest rates based on economic, price and financial conditions. Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities strategist Naomi Rokucha said this marks a change in the Bank of Japan's "policy response function". In this report, the Bank of Japan said that foreign exchange rates are increasingly likely to affect prices, and that such fluctuations could affect potential inflation by changing inflation expectations. The Bank of Japan does not directly target the yen, but if the yen's depreciation significantly accelerates price increases, the central bank may adjust its policy. (Jin Shi)

Nikolai Tangen, CEO of Norway's sovereign wealth fund, said that the arrival of the era of artificial intelligence is offsetting some of the inflationary impact of soaring energy prices caused by the war in the Middle East and helping the market absorb the shock. "This is striking because based on the current situation in the Middle East, you would expect this to transmit to higher energy prices, higher fuel prices, higher fertilizer prices," Tangan said in an interview on Tuesday. "To some extent, this has begun to hit Asia," he noted. We expect it to be transmitted to Europe and the United States through price increases. This is usually bad for the market. But the market is indeed taking it easy. Tangan said he was surprised that there had been no major imbalances in the financial markets. Inflation is usually a factor that hits the market. This is something we must pay close attention to. On the other hand, we have AI, which we consider to have a deflationary effect. I think that's exactly what the market is currently digesting.
