Former Japan finance ministry official and ex-Asian Development Bank president Takehiko Nakao said on Monday the Bank of Japan should raise rates at every policy meeting, targeting a policy rate above 2% to narrow the Japan–US yield gap and ease yen weakness. He added that even with a 1% policy rate Japan’s real rate remains negative while peers’ real rates are positive, and that with inflation around 2% a policy rate of about 2.25–2.5% would not be unusual.

8月14日A股低於3%換手率股票佔比反彈至64.71%;高於5%換手率股票佔比反彈至18.94%,不過目前尚在閾值水平附近,留意市場交投活躍度能否站穩。 -------- 注:1、當換手率低於3%的股票佔比上升,尤其是接近歷史高位附近(圖中虛線,圖爲反轉走勢)時,意味着市場很有可能遇到一個階段低點,容易產生反轉或反彈。 2、當高換手率高於5%的股票佔市場總數比例保持在閾值(圖中虛線)上方,市場纔會出現強的賺錢效應,使得行情具有持續性。牛市的時候,該指標會持續保持在閾值上方,市場迎來普漲行情;而熊市的時候,該指標大多時候在閾值下方,偶爾超過閾值反而要小心衝高回落的風險。
