  "account": "Asian stock markets recovered from losses on Wednesday, before the highly anticipated interest rate decision by the US Federal Reserve. Investors initially hesitated, but Asian equity markets turned positive after four consecutive days of decline. The Nikkei-Index, which includes 225 stocks, climbed 0.6 percent to 63,830 points in Tokyo. The Shanghai Stock Exchange also rose 0.6 percent to 3,887 points. The South Korean Kospi index gained 0.7 percent to 6,673 points, with the Kospi currently trading at 6,673 points. Traders are betting on a 25 basis point US interest rate hike, with a 92.4 percent probability according to the CME Group's FedWatch Tool. The rise in US Treasury yields and high oil prices have boosted market sentiment, according to traders. The Dollar Index, which measures the value of the Greenback against a basket of six major currencies, hovered near a two-week high. The dollar gained 0.1 percent to 155.29 yen, while the Chinese yuan slipped slightly to 6.7106 yuan. The Swiss franc improved to 0.8189 francs. Commodity prices ended the day lower. Brent crude oil fell 0.6 percent to $108.14 per barrel, while US oil WTI dropped 0.9 percent to $104.85. Oil prices were down nearly 3 percent on Tuesday. Digital assets continued their downward trend, with Bitcoin sliding 0.1 percent to $75,816.24 and Ether falling 0.2 percent to $2,403.27. Meanwhile, China has given the EU a shock with an export offensive, increasing exports by up to 53 percent.",
  "summary": "Vor dem Fed-Entscheid machten die Börsen zunächst Verluste, erholten sich aber im Verlauf des Tages. Der Dollar notierte nahe einem Zwei-Wochen-Hoch, Kryptowährungen gerieten weiter unter Druck.",
