Japan's latest seasonally adjusted unemployment rate significantly dropped to 2.5% in Q2 2026, a marked improvement from the previous value of 2.7% in Q1 2026. Although market consensus expected a slight increase in the unemployment rate, authoritative data confirms a strong labor market driven by Japan's labor shortage and corporate talent retention efforts. Going forward, it is necessary to guard against the negative impact of the Middle East situation and US tariff policies on corporate profits.
