💨 Abstract

Asian stocks were subdued on Wednesday due to economic worries and geopolitical tensions. Gold prices hovered near record highs. The Bank of Japan held interest rates steady, with focus now on Governor Ueda's post-meeting press conference and the Federal Reserve's policy decision later in the day. The yen was slightly weaker, while the euro was close to a five-month high after Germany's parliament approved increased spending.
