We will continue to ensure that public safety is maximized.On December 21, six sources familiar with U.S. intelligence said that a U.S. intelligence report continues to warn that Russian President Vladimir Putin has not abandoned his goal of occupying the whole of Ukraine and reclaiming the European parts of the former Soviet Union. This report contrasts sharply with the account given by U.S. President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian peace negotiators, who claim Putin wants to end the conflict. According to one of the sources, the latest report was dated late September. This intelligence also contradicts Putins denial of posing a threat to Europe. According to the sources, this intelligence is largely consistent with the views of European leaders and intelligence agencies that Putin covets the entire territory of Ukraine and former Soviet states, including some NATO member states.December 21 - According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, a 5.5-magnitude earthquake struck off the eastern coast of Aomori Prefecture, Japan, at approximately 10:29 a.m. local time on December 21.

Jeremy Paner, a partner at the Washington-based law firm Hughes Hubbard and a former investigator with the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), said the ship was not subject to U.S. sanctions. “The seizure of a vessel not sanctioned by the United States marks a further increase in pressure on Venezuela by Trump,” Paner said. “This also contradicts Trump’s statements that the U.S. will blockade all sanctioned oil tankers.”

In the early Asian session, the AUD/JPY currency pair is bouncing violently in a narrow range below the resistance level of 90.00. Before the Bank of Japan introduces its first monetary policy of CY2023, the risk barometer indicates a sideways auction (BoJ). The AUD/JPY exchange rate reflects the consolidation of the AUD/USD, indicating an uncertain risk profile.

 

Investors anticipate that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will not alter its policy stance on Friday, as doing so would increase financial market risk and hinder efforts to boost inflation. Previously, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) announced that the central bank will review the negative side effects of the decade-long ultra-loose monetary policy, generating the impression that the central bank is eager to abandon the easy policy.

 

The experts at Standard Charted expect the Bank of Japan to hold both the policy balance rate and the 10-year yield goal at their present levels of -0.1% and 0%, respectively. The recent decision to expand the 10-year JGB band to +/-50 bps (from +/-25 bps) will be evaluated by policymakers at the December meeting.

 

The replacement of current Governor of the Bank of Japan Haruhiko Kuroda will be widely followed. The next BoJ governor nominee is anticipated to be presented to the Japanese parliament on February 10, Reuters reported on Tuesday. Amamiya, Nakaso, and Yamaguchi are regarded as leading C.banking candidates.
