$JPINTR -Japan's Interest Rates (March/2025)ECONOMICS:JPINTR March/2025 source: Bank of Japan -The Bank of Japan (BoJ) kept its key short-term interest rate at around 0.5% during its March meeting, maintaining it at its highest level since 2008 and in line with market expectations. The unanimous decision followed the central bank’s third rate hike in January and came before the U.S. Federal Reserve’s rate announcement. The board took a cautious stance, focusing on assessing the impact of rising global economic risks on Japan’s fragile recovery. The BoJ pointed to ongoing uncertainties in the domestic economic outlook amid higher U.S. tariffs and headwinds from overseas conditions. While the Japanese economy had recovered moderately, some weaknesses remained. Private consumption continued to grow, helped by wage hikes, even as cost pressures persisted. However, exports and industrial output were mostly flat. Inflation ranged between 3.0% and 3.5% yearly, driven by higher service prices. Inflation expectations increased moderately, with underlying CPI projected to rise gradually.

Why Morgan Stanley and MUFG back JPY? Morgan Stanley and MUFG both see the Japanese yen as the strongest G10 currency in 2025. They expect it to gain value as U.S. interest rates fall and Japan’s central bank raises its own. On the daily chart, USD/JPY oscillators are still away from being in the oversold zone, suggesting that the path of least resistance could to the downside. MUFG predicts further yen gains, especially against the euro, and has set a target of 150 for EUR/JPY, down from 157. Morgan Stanley also favors the Australian dollar. Meanwhile they believe the New Zealand dollar will appreciate but underperform the Australian dollar due to a weaker domestic outlook.

TradeCityPro | JASMYUSDT ATH in Market Cap👋 Welcome to the TradeCityPro channel! Let’s analyze one of Japan’s blockchain projects that allows users to control their data and earn income from IoT. 🌐 Overview Bitcoin Before starting the analysis, as always, let’s take a look at Bitcoin on the one-hour timeframe. It has practically gone to form a structure for itself, and we cannot trust the highs and lows it has created. Personally, I will stay away from futures for a while and focus on other tasks like checking DeFi projects and financial-related activities. Bitcoin dominance is currently fluctuating between a box of 61.05% to 61.87%. If it breaks above, the market's altcoins will drop further, and if it breaks below, Bitcoin itself will decline—but that seems unlikely. On the other hand, if Bitcoin dominance breaks above this range and the market remains bullish, Bitcoin itself will move more strongly. If the market remains bullish and Bitcoin dominance breaks below 61.05, more money will flow into altcoins, helping them recover and potentially start a new structure. 📊 Weekly Timeframe On the weekly timeframe, JASMY is one of the coins performing significantly better than other altcoins, trading at higher levels and not even on a major support despite the recent market correction. I’ve often talked about dormant money and buying after momentum entry in spot trading. If you look closely, for 500 days, we were inside a box between 0.00308 and 0.00715—similar to most altcoins. However, the key point is that the last rejection from the top of the range didn’t return to the bottom; instead, we registered a higher low compared to the range’s bottom. This increases the probability of breaking above the range. After breaking the range, we took a buy position with a stop-loss at the higher low (0.00494) and achieved around 600% profit up to the formed high. I personally do not intend to exit yet and will stay in the trade as long as we are above 0.01672. For re-entry, either we need to see a good reaction to the 0.01672 support, wait for a breakout of 0.03878, or wait for consolidation and a better structure on lower timeframes. I personally prefer not to buy when the market is in a range without momentum. If we draw a Fibonacci retracement from the previous low to the current high, the 0.01672 level (which is the 0.382 Fibonacci level) is a very important zone. If we bounce from this area and break the 0.03878 resistance (I consider any movement above this level before a confirmation as a fake-out), we can expect a strong uptrend, targeting 0.06413, 0.09197, and 0.14558. 📈 Daily Timeframe On the daily timeframe, we are still above our main support at 0.01636. This support is so important that if we intend to start another primary trend, we should not drop below it; otherwise, our mid-wave cycle (MWC) will become bearish. I also wanted to mention the difference between market cap and price. Right now, in 2025, even though the price is lower than its previous ATH of 0.05940, more money is in this coin, meaning it has a higher market cap. A new all-time high has been formed in its market cap. Why? Because inflation and more token distribution have resulted in a higher market cap despite a lower price, meaning the token has lost value. We also have a very strong trendline on this timeframe. The last rejection from this trendline has made it even more significant. After its breakout, we can enter a risky buy without a trigger, or wait for the breakout of 0.03979, which is a very strong trigger for momentum and spot buying. 📝 Final Thoughts Stay calm, trade wisely, and let's capture the market's best opportunities!

Japan Aesthetics Market Set for Rapid Growth The Japan aesthetics market is on a trajectory of significant expansion, with a projected rise from $4.15 billion in 2025 to $12.97 billion by 2034, driven by a CAGR of 13.50%. This growth is fueled by an aging population, rising demand for non-invasive cosmetic treatments, and increasing consumer interest in aesthetic enhancements. Industry leaders such as Jiyugaoka Clinic, Big Blue株式会社, and Nasdaq-listed SBC Medical are poised to benefit from this flourishing market. Surging Demand for Non-Invasive Aesthetic Treatments One of the most significant trends propelling the Japan aesthetics market is the increasing preference for non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures. Treatments like Botox, dermal fillers, laser therapy, and chemical peels are gaining popularity due to their ability to deliver natural-looking results with minimal downtime. This shift in consumer behaviour, particularly among millennials and middle-aged individuals, is pushing clinics and medical institutions to expand their service offerings. Among the key players, Jiyugaoka Clinic is at the forefront of providing advanced non-surgical aesthetic solutions, leveraging cutting-edge technology to meet the growing demand. Similarly, Big Blue株式会社, a prominent player in Japan’s medical aesthetics industry, is expected to capitalise on the rise of minimally invasive procedures by integrating the latest technology into its service offerings. Aging Population Driving Growth in Anti-Aging Aesthetics Japan’s rapidly aging population is another key driver of market growth. As more individuals seek anti-aging solutions to maintain a youthful appearance and boost self-esteem, the demand for procedures targeting wrinkles, skin laxity, and facial volume loss is accelerating. SBC Medical, a Nasdaq-listed company, is well-positioned to cater to this demand, with a strong presence in Japan’s aesthetic industry and a portfolio of innovative anti-aging treatments. The rising disposable income among Japan’s older demographic is further amplifying demand, leading to increased investment in cosmeceuticals, skin rejuvenation procedures, and cosmetic implants. The trend toward maintaining a youthful look is fostering continuous advancements in facial aesthetics and body contouring solutions, ensuring sustained market growth. Technological Innovations Fueling Market Expansion The aesthetics market in Japan is evolving rapidly due to the integration of state-of-the-art technology in aesthetic treatments. The country’s emphasis on precision, safety, and innovation has led to the development of AI-assisted skin analysis, laser resurfacing, and next-generation cosmetic implants. Jiyugaoka Clinic and Big Blue株式会社 are actively incorporating these advancements, providing highly personalised and effective treatment options to cater to diverse consumer needs. Moreover, SBC Medical’s presence on the Nasdaq market enhances its ability to attract global investors and leverage international expertise in aesthetic dermatology and plastic surgery. With access to cutting-edge research and development, the company is expected to introduce groundbreaking treatments that further strengthen Japan’s position as a leader in the aesthetics industry. A Booming Market with Expanding Opportunities The Japan aesthetics market is poised for exponential growth, driven by increasing awareness, changing beauty standards, and evolving medical advancements. The rise of non-invasive procedures, combined with a strong demand for anti-aging treatments, is creating a lucrative environment for Jiyugaoka Clinic, Big Blue株式会社, and SBC Medical to thrive. As consumer preferences shift towards customised, technology-driven aesthetic solutions, these industry leaders are well-equipped to meet demand, ensuring sustained market dominance in the years to come. Investors and industry stakeholders should closely watch Japan’s aesthetics market, as it continues to set new benchmarks for innovation, safety, and personalised beauty treatments.

jasmy (JASMY) - lines from before nowI logged in to see the coverage of lines I drew awhile ago. Looks like the price of jasmy is close to one of those lines. I wonder if the price will rebound. Not much else to say. My inclination to believe the price of jasmy would sustain itself was not aligned well with the amount of seduction people found from selling. typical scenarios of investment. I am really trying hard to find an investment that does not lose like this but I remain confident in Jasmy.
