Developments<\/h2>\n

The Fed is expected to keep policy unchanged in June, with markets pricing in a high likelihood of a near-term hold. Traders on Polymarket are now actively pricing the Fed Decision in June contract, reflecting a shift in implied odds ahead of the June meeting.<\/p>\n

Iran-US talks yielded a framework to end their war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but analysts say the Bank of Japan is still on track to raise rates to 1% from 0.75% later this week, maintaining a path of gradual tightening despite regional tensions. The CNA-reported snapshot notes that BOJ policymakers see price pressures rising and are expected to deliver two rate hikes this year, potentially lifting the policy rate to a 31-year high as energy shocks from the Iran conflict ripple through markets. In Tokyo, investors watched the BoJ stance as US-Iran developments influenced risk sentiment, while the central bank signaled it would normalize policy at a measured pace. Market participants interpreted the Reuters-compiled briefing as reinforcing the odds of a June rate move, keeping markets attentive to the timing and magnitude of future steps.<\/p>\n
