BOJ’s Ueda signals long-term rates likely stable despite potential short-term rate increases

Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda indicated that long-term interest rates are likely to remain stable even if short-term rates rise due to inflation target improvements. The statement suggests the BOJ may pursue a gradual approach to monetary tightening, balancing near-term rate adjustments with longer-term yield stability. This measured stance could ease pressure on risk assets and cryptocurrency markets sensitive to global interest rate shifts.
