🚨 Japan’s Nikkei 225 soars over +4%, hitting a new all-time high above 47,800, after Sanae Takaichi is set to become Japan’s first female Prime Minister 🇯🇵📈
🔺Investors see Takaichi as a fiscal dove someone likely to favor economic stimulus, government spending, and low interest rates rather than tightening. 💴
Her victory signals🤝
• More pro-growth policies
• Continued support from the Bank of Japan (BOJ)
• Possible delay in rate hikes
• A weaker yen (boosting exports)
🔺The yen dropped 1% against the U.S. dollar after her win traders are betting on looser fiscal policy and BOJ patience. 💹
🔺This makes Japan one of the few major economies still leaning pro-growth while others are tightening.
That’s a big signal for global liquidity and Asian equities. 🌐
