February 9th – At a regular press conference on February 9th, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian addressed a reporters question regarding the Japanese House of Representatives election. Lin Jian stated that China urges the ruling Japanese authorities to face up to, rather than ignore, the concerns of the international community, and to follow the path of peaceful development rather than repeating the mistakes of militarism. He stressed the need to abide by the four political documents between China and Japan, rather than betray them. He asserted that if the far-right forces in Japan misjudge the situation and act recklessly, they will inevitably face resistance from the Japanese people and a strong counterattack from the international community. Chinas policy towards Japan remains stable and consistent and will not change due to any single Japanese election. He reiterated Chinas urging to Japan to retract its erroneous remarks regarding Taiwan made by Kaohsiung City and demonstrate its basic sincerity in upholding the political foundation of China-Japan relations through concrete actions.February 9th - Data from the Comprehensive Transportation Spring Festival Travel Rush Task Force shows that on February 8th, 2026 (the 7th day of the Spring Festival travel rush, the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, Sunday), the total cross-regional passenger flow reached 227.713 million person-times, an increase of 2.3% compared to the previous day and 2.3% compared to the same period in 2025 (Monday).

What impact will the Fed's interest rate cuts bring to the global capital market? 

1) US stocks: short-term positive, but the US stocks still have adjustment pressure.  But the long-term trend of US stocks depends on the extent of the recession.

 2) US debt: support the bull market . The trend of 10-year US Treasury interest rates is basically the same as the rhythm of interest rate cuts, but will react in advance.

 3) US dollar: bearish dollar index. The main factor affecting the US dollar index is the relative strength of the US economy with other major countries, especially the Eurozone. The current cycle of the US economy lags behind other countries. In the future, as the US economy accelerates and the Eurozone enters the bottoming stage, the US dollar will have depreciation pressure, and the Fed’s expected interest rate cut will cause the US dollar to depreciate earlier.

 4) Gold: may caused the price of gold to rise, bull market can be expected. The price of gold is affected by the risk aversion and the US dollar.Also, the depreciation of the US dollar is good for gold. On the other hand, the safe-haven value of gold will be greatly reduced compared to the previous rounds of interest rate cuts. 

5) Emerging market stocks: short-term positive, long-term trend depends on economic conditions. The depreciation of the dollar will bring capital inflows to emerging markets, but the long-term trend of the stock market depends on the state of the economy.
