Quick Glance: US House Nears Passing TikTok Legislation Requiring Separation from Chinese Ownership
  • The US House of Representatives is set to vote on a proposal next Wednesday that could compel TikTok to sever ties with its Chinese owner or face a ban in the United States.

  • Anticipated at 10:00 am (1400 GMT), the vote is expected to take place in a rare instance of bipartisan unity in a politically divided Washington.

  • The future of the legislation remains uncertain in the Senate as key figures oppose taking such a drastic action against an app with 170 million users in the US.

  • President Joe Biden is expected to sign the bill, officially known as the 'Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act,' into law if it reaches his desk, as stated by the White House.

Quick Glance: Fate of BOJ's Stimulus Tools Revealed
  • The Bank of Japan ended eight years of negative interest rates and other unorthodox measures to boost growth. Details on changes to the stimulating tools were disclosed.

  • The negative interest rate policy was lifted, and the bank now pays a 0.1% interest rate on excess reserves to withdraw money from the economy.

  • Yield curve control was dismantled, but the bank will continue to buy bonds and intervene with larger purchases if bond yields rise rapidly.

  • The purchase of risky assets like ETFs and REITs was discontinued, and the commitment to maintain massive stimulus was withdrawn to reassure the market.
