I do not think this automatically means global tech stocks will fall. Japan’s rate is still relatively low, and gradual normalization should be manageable. The bigger risk is a sudden carry-trade unwind, forcing investors to reduce exposure across U.S. tech, bonds and other high-beta assets.
For now, I am watching BOJ guidance, USD/JPY and whether Japanese investors bring capital back home as domestic yields rise. If these signals move together, this could become a global liquidity story. I would stay patient and keep some flexibility rather than overreacting to the hike.
