Ethan Wu called it:
“the Bank of Japan, the central bank, will hike again to 1.25% sometime later this year”
On the record 33 days and counting. Nobody can edit it, including Ethan.
No objective test could be drawn from these words without inventing criteria the speaker never set, so it is preserved rather than scored.
This is kept for what it is: something said, on a date, from a source anyone can check. No test was locked, so nothing settles it and it is never counted for or against anyone. Thonest will not invent a threshold or a date that was never said — a claim scored against criteria written afterwards would prove nothing.
Submitter-attested — no machine-readable source
Added by Thonest from a public source. The person quoted did not submit, approve, or endorse this record; the wording is verified against the source itself.

Reactions are about the record being worth keeping — never about whether the person was right. They are never counted for or against anyone, and never used to rank anything.

and interest rates are rising. They're now at about 1%. The expectation is that the Bank of Japan, the central bank, will hike again to 1.25% sometime later this year. So is that going to destabilize this so-called carry trade? the Bank of Japan, the central bank, will hike again to 1.25% sometime later this year

Disputes
No disputes have been filed. If something here is wrong — a misquote, a wrong date, a misattributed source — say so and it gets answered on the record. How disputes work.
✓ The anchored proof cannot be rewritten, and the published record is append-only by default. Everything that happened afterward is in the history above — corrections are appended, never silently edited in.
The check runs in your browser and reads the anchored root straight from a public Base node — not from Thonest. How this works.
