AI Data Insight

The latest Q4 2026 Tokyo area core CPI index climbed to 103.0, showing an expansionary trend compared to the previous value of 102.5. External data indicates that the year-over-year growth rate in October was 2.6%, matching market consensus and slowing slightly, primarily suppressed by a plunge in rice prices and the base effect of water charges. However, energy prices rebounded against the trend and service inflation remained sticky; the market is closely watching the Bank of Japan's December interest rate decision.
