Banco do Japão

O PIB do 4º trimestre de 2025 do Japão foi revisado para cima para 1,3% anualizado, ante os 0,2% preliminares reportados em 16 de fevereiro, impulsionado por fortes gastos empresariais. Os gastos das famílias com bens e serviços privados em janeiro se mantiveram estáveis apesar de queda anual, com preços contidos de gasolina no varejo aliviando a inflação. Analistas agora esperam que o Banco do Japão mantenha as taxas em abril e as eleve em junho.

Tokyo's core consumer price index rose 1.8% in February, falling below the Bank of Japan's 2% target for the first time since October 2024. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's utility subsidies curbed household energy costs, posing a communication challenge for the central bank's planned interest rate hikes. The figure exceeded economists' median forecast of 1.7%.

Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda signaled the likelihood of further interest rate hikes next year, expressing growing confidence that the central bank is nearing its sustainable 2% price stability target. In a speech Thursday at a conference hosted by business lobby Keidanren, Ueda noted that the goal, accompanied by wage increases, is steadily approaching. His remarks underscore investor expectations that the bank will continue hikes even after raising borrowing costs to the highest level since 1995 last Friday.

Core consumer prices in Tokyo rose 2.3 percent year-on-year in December, slowing from 2.8 percent in November but staying above the Bank of Japan's 2 percent target. The figure fell short of market expectations of 2.5 percent, triggering yen weakness. As a leading indicator for nationwide trends, the data will factor into the BOJ's next policy meeting.

The Bank of Japan’s quarterly tankan survey showed large manufacturers’ business sentiment index rising to 15 in December from 14 in September, marking a four-year high since December 2021. This improvement reinforces market expectations for a rate hike by the central bank. Nonmanufacturers’ index held steady at 34.
