UPDATE 1-BOJ board turned hawkish in April, many saw need for more rate hikes-summary
Bank of Japan board members turned overwhelmingly hawkish at their April policy meeting with many calling for the need to raise interest rates steadily to forestall risks of an inflation overshoot, a summary of opinions at the meeting showed. The debate underscores BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda's recent remarks signalling the chance of multiple rate hikes ahead, and heightens the possibility of an increase in short-term borrowing costs in coming months. One member said the BOJ should consider raising rates moderately, to avoid being forced to hike in a "discontinuous and rapid" way once its price target is sustainably met, according to the summary released on Thursday.

UPDATE 1-Vietnam's China ties loom large in US hearing on market economy upgrade
U.S. President Joe Biden's bid to draw Vietnam closer as a strategic ally clashed with his desire for union workers' votes on Wednesday as trade lawyers sparred over whether the Commerce Department should upgrade the communist-ruled country to market economy status. The move, opposed by U.S. steelmakers, Gulf Coast shrimpers and American honey farmers, but backed by retailers and some other business groups, would reduce the punitive anti-dumping duties set on Vietnamese imports because of its current status as a non-market economy marked by heavy state influence. Vietnam's deepening economic ties to China loomed large in arguments on both sides of the issue at a virtual public hearing hosted by the Commerce Department as part of a review and decision due on July 26.
