  "account": "The first interest rate hike by the US Federal Reserve in over three years has caused mixed reactions in Asian stock markets. Japan's Nikkei index rose by 0.3% to 64,136 points, while the broader Topix gained almost 1% to 4,094. Shanghai's stock exchange fell by nearly half a percent, with the Shanghai and Shenzhen indices dropping around half a percent. South Korea's top index, the Kospi, showed little change, closing at 6,715 points. The Fed had raised interest rates as expected by a quarter percentage point and signaled another hike this year. This move eased concerns among Japanese investors about the Fed's independence, given that President Donald Trump had repeatedly called for rate cuts. However, Wataru Akiyama, a strategist at Nomura, remained cautious. \"While there are gains across the board, the current situation in the Japanese stock market is not particularly strong.\" Technologically sensitive tech stocks tended downward before the upcoming decision of Japan's central bank on Friday. The market also priced in possible slowdown in the development of artificial intelligence. In Hong Kong, the market needs fiscal incentives or an unexpected technological breakthrough for a sustainable and noticeable recovery, said Kevin Liu, chief strategist at China International Capital Corporation.",
  "summary": "Die Fed in den USA hat den Leitzins wegen der steigenden Inflation um 0,25 Prozentpunkte erhöht. Asiatische Anleger reagieren prompt, aber durchaus unterschiedlich.",
