Japan's newly released Q2 2026 CPI reached 113.6, continuing its climb from the previous value of 113.5 and confirming that the upward trend in prices remains unabated. As the government's reduction in energy subsidies and a weak yen drive up import costs, market expectations for the Bank of Japan to maintain monetary tightening and the pressure to raise interest rates will gradually intensify.
