The year-on-year growth rate of the core CPI in the Tokyo area of Japan reached 1.3% in July 2026 (Q3 2026), showing an expanding trend compared to the previous value of 1.1%. Although external market data indicated that the figure for the month reached 1.9%, this report relies on the authoritative given data. Affected by the narrowing decline in energy prices and a weak yen driving up import costs, upward pressure on prices continues, and the market is closely monitoring the Bank of Japan's monetary policy movements.
