After the Bank of Japan announced an interest rate hike, the Federal Reserve announced the start of a rate cut cycle on September 18, 2007. At that time, the Dow Jones Index was around 13,570, and then it rose for three weeks to 14,280, breaking the previous high. It then began a one-and-a-half-year decline to 6,449, and then began the largest-scale rise in history. Will history repeat itself?
