asiatimes.com/2024/04/yen-hits-34-year-low-defying-end-of-negative-rates/
Quick Glance: Japan's Economic Policy and the Impact on the Yen
- On March 19, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) raised interest rates for the first time in 17 years, signaling the end of an era of negative interest rates.
- Despite this adjustment, Japan continues to have the lowest interest rates globally. The notion that lower interest rates lead to higher growth was the basis for adopting negative rates.
- However, negative rates did not serve as an economic stimulus but rather burdened commercial banks' reserves at the central bank.
- The BoJ's policy of low and negative interest rates has hindered bank credit growth in Japan for years, impacting the economy negatively.

Trump hush money case makes history with first criminal trial of a former president
saudigazette.com.sa/article/642073
Quick Glance: Trump Faces Landmark Trial Over Hush Money Case
- Donald Trump will go down in history as the first former president to stand trial in Manhattan on criminal charges. The historic case revolves around a potential sex scandal cover-up just days before the 2016 elections.
- The prosecution alleges that Trump falsified business records to hide hush money payments aimed at influencing the election outcome. Trump maintains his innocence and refutes any involvement with Stormy Daniels.
- The trial will feature key witnesses from Trump's inner circle testifying against him, including Michael Cohen and David Pecker. It will delve into the Oval Office, where Trump allegedly approved the cover-up.
- Prosecutors must prove that Trump falsified business records with intent to commit or conceal another crime. Trump's defense is likely to focus on the legality of the hush money payments and attempt to distance him from the accounting handled by his employees.
