The Bank of Japan raised its key interest rate to about 0.5% from 0.25% Friday, noting that inflation is holding at a desirable target level. “The economy is gradually recovering,” BOJ Gov. Kazuo Ueda told reporters after a two-day policy board meeting in Tokyo. He acknowledged uncertainties remain, including overseas inflation and foreign exchange fluctuations. But he reaffirmed his view that additional hikes will be needed if the economy remains stable. “Our basic thinking has not changed,” he added, stressing the importance of ...

The Bank of Japan hiked rates by 25 basis points Friday to 0.5%, bringing its policy rate to its highest level since 2008, as it seeks to normalize its monetary policy. The move comes in line with expectations from CNBC’s survey from Jan 15-20, which saw an overwhelming majority of economists predict a hike. Following the decision, the Japanese yen weakened marginally to trade at 156.09 against the dollar, while country’s benchmark Nikkei 225 stock index rose 0.59%. Senior BOJ officials, including governor Kazuo Ueda and Deputy ...

Japan's economy is likely to keep growing at a pace above its potential growth rate, with overseas economies continuing to grow moderately and as a virtuous cycle from income to spending gradually intensifies against the background of factors such as accommodative financial conditions. • The year-on-year rate of increase in the consumer price index (CPI, all items less fresh food) is likely to be in the range of 2.5-3.0 percent for fiscal 2024, at around 2.5 percent for fiscal 2025, and at around 2 percent for fiscal 2026.

A look at the day ahead in Asian markets. Investors divert their focus away from Washington on Friday for the first time since President Donald Trump's inauguration on Monday, towards Tokyo and the Bank of Japan, which is widely expected to raise interest rates to a 17-year high of 0.5 per cent. Assuming the BOJ does raise rates by a quarter of a percentage point - a 95 per cent certainty, according to market pricing - that focus will narrow in even more on Governor Kazuo Ueda's press conference and the signals he sends about future ...

The Bank of Japan is expected to maintain ultra-low interest rates on Thursday and signal a cautious approach to rolling back its massive monetary stimulus, as political uncertainty and jittery markets cloud the outlook. The ruling coalition's loss of a majority in a weekend election has heightened concerns about policy paralysis, raising the hurdle for additional rate hikes, analysts say. The BOJ is likely in no rush to push up borrowing costs with inflation showing few signs of spiking and Japan's economic recovery fragile. But ...

The Bank of Japan holds a two-day policy meeting concluding on Oct. 31, days after a general election where new Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba faces a key test on his agenda to prop up wages and revitalise the country's weak regional economies. Here is a guide on what to expect and why the BOJ's rate review matters: Is BOJ Going to Raise Interest Rates? The BOJ ended negative interest rates in March and raised its short-term policy target to 0.25 per cent in July. It has signaled readiness to hike again, once the board has enough ...

The dollar rose against all the G10 currencies last week, but it was not because of higher US rates. In fact, the 10-year US Treasury yield fell for the first time in five weeks. The two-year yield did not rise for the first time in three weeks. Rather than an increase in US rates, several other countries' rates fell. The result was that the US 2-year premium over Germany rose for the fourth consecutive week and is now the most since June. The US premium over Canada rose for the third week and the sixth week in the past seven. It is ...
