Following the US Federal Reserve Board's dcision of raising its key interst rate,the world's major central banks are going towards the policy of shifting away from their money-market-eased one, which lasted about 10 yearts after the so-called Rehman Brothers' financial crisis. It is said that during the past 10 yeras after the Rehman crisis, the money circulating in the world market has inflated 1.8 times to $90 trillion. Given such conditions, central banks in the countries or organaization like Canada, UK, Sweden, and EU(ECB), are going to squeeze and shrink inflated money to the appropriate level each. But there seem to be some difficulties attaining their golas. As to side effects, there is a high possibility of putting a brake on their economy.
However, Japan's central bank, BOJ, is not on this track.

What I see or I hear

In the morning I walked for a while with my dog. And when I got to the cherry tree path along a river,I could hear cicadas making their high-pitched singing. I walked there yesterday also, but I didn't notice such a thing. The air was not humid today's morning, and I could find out that the rainy season was over here. I am not sure whether there had been an official announcement of it, or the end of rainy season, from the Meteorological Agency, cicadas living in the wild told us of it.
