Stock market today: Asian shares are mixed after Bank of Japan ups key rate for 1st time in 17 years
World shares are mixed after the Bank of Japan hiked its benchmark interest rate for the first time in 17 years, ending a longstanding negative rate policy. The BOJ's decision to raise the overnight call rate to a range of 0 to 0.1%, up from minus 0.1% drew only a muted reaction in markets. Shares fell in London, Hong Kong and Shanghai but rose in Tokyo and Paris. On Monday, the S&P 500 added 0.6% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.2%. The Nasdaq composite climbed 0.8%. The Federal Reserve is due Wednesday to give its latest projections for where it sees interest rates heading this year.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken has underscored Washington’s “ironclad commitment” to help defend the Philippines in case of an armed attack against its forces. Clashes between Chinese and Filipino coast guards in the disputed South China Sea recently turned more hostile. Blinken held talks with his Philippine counterpart, Enrique Manalo, and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. Tuesday in Manila. Next month, United States President Joe Biden will host Marcos and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in a White House summit. Their talks will likely include the growing concerns over increasingly aggressive Chinese actions in the South China Sea, as well as North Korea’s nuclear program.
Trump is making the Jan. 6 attack a cornerstone of his bid for the White House
A British newspaper says Prince William and his wife Catherine have been filmed at a farm shop near their Windsor home. It's the first reported footage of Kate since she had abdominal surgery for an unspecified condition two months ago. The Sun published a short clip late Monday that appeared to show the couple smiling as they walked together, carrying shopping bags. It said the footage was taken on Saturday. The couple’s Kensington Palace office did not comment. The palace has said Kate will return to official duties after Easter, likely once her children go back to school on April 17. Feverish and at times fantastical speculation has swirled about Kate’s condition during her absence.
The average Wall Street bonus fell slightly last year to $176,500. New York state comptroller has reported Tuesday that the average bonus for employees in New York City’s securities industry was down 2% from 2022. The slight dip came even as Wall Street profits were up slightly. The comptroller's office says that firms took a more cautious approach to compensation as more employees joined the industry, which accounts for the slight decline.
Six former Mississippi law enforcement officers who pleaded guilty to a long list of state and federal charges for torturing two Black men will be sentenced by a federal judge starting Tuesday. U.S. District Judge Tom Lee will sentence two defendants each day on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Each faces the potential of decades behind bars. The former law officers have admitted to subjecting Michael Corey Jenkins and Eddie Terrell Parker to numerous acts of racially motivated torture. In a January 2023 episode, the group of six burst into a Rankin County home without a warrant and assaulted the men with stun guns, a sex toy and other objects.
Japan's central bank has raised its benchmark interest rate for the first time in 17 years, ending a longstanding policy of negative rates meant to boost the economy. The Bank of Japan's overnight call rate was raised to a range of 0 to 0.1% from minus 0.1% at a policy meeting that confirmed expectations of a shift away from ultra-lax monetary policy. It’s the first rate hike since February 2007. The bank had set a target of about 2% inflation as the key indicator for tightening credit. But Tuesday's decision allowed room for adjustments and the BOJ said the economy still faces ''extremely high uncertainties."
