Asian shares slip, yen aims for best week in 4 months on BOJ hike bets

Live Mint  

By Stella Qiu SYDNEY - Asian shares slipped on Friday while the yen was aiming for its best week in four months as strong local inflation data had traders favouring an imminent rate hike from the Bank of Japan. "We note that the acceleration in inflation, combined with the solid recovery in monthly activity, increases the odds of another BoJ rate hike in December," said analysts at ING in a note. Futures narrowed the odds of a quarter-point rate cut from the Federal Reserve in December to 63%, from 55% a week ago, according to CME Group's Fed Watch Tool. Traders are still leaning towards a 25-bps rate cut from the European Central Bank in December, after a board member Isabel Schnabel said it should only cut rates gradually.
