US President Trump criticized the Federal Reserve on Thursday, once again targeting Fed Chairman Powell, accusing him of being slow to act on interest rate cuts. Trump mentioned "Jerome 'Too Late' Powell" in his speech in South Korea, and said he will not let the Fed raise rates because of concerns about inflation three years from now. He expects the US economy to achieve 4% growth in the first quarter of 2026, well above economists' forecasts. This statement highlights the tense relationship between Trump and the Fed.

The Bank of Japan is reportedly planning further interest rate hikes; some officials believe the neutral interest rate will be higher than 1%.
according to insiders, Bank of Japan officials believe that before the current rate hike cycle ends, interest rates are likely to rise above 0.75%, indicating that there may be more rate hikes after next week's increase. These insiders said that officials believe that even if rates rise to 0.75%, the Bank of Japan has not yet reached the neutral interest rate level. Some officials already consider 1% to still be below the neutral interest rate level. Insiders stated that even if the Bank of Japan updates its neutral rate estimates based on the latest data, it currently does not believe that this range will significantly narrow. Currently, the Bank of Japan's estimate for the nominal neutral interest rate range is about 1% to 2.5%. Insiders said that Bank of Japan officials also believe there may be errors in the upper and lower limits of this range itself. (Golden Ten) -

HSBC expects the Federal Reserve to refrain from cutting interest rates for the next two years.
HSBC Securities predicts the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates stable at the 3.5%-3.75% range set on Wednesday for the next two years. Previously, Federal Reserve policymakers lowered rates by 25 basis points with a split vote. The institution's U.S. economist Ryan Wang pointed out in a report on December 10 that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell was "open to the question of whether and when to further cut rates at next year's FOMC press conference." "We believe the FOMC will keep the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% throughout 2026 and 2027, but as the economy evolves, as in the past, it is always necessary to pay close attention to the significant two-way risks facing this outlook."
