AI Data Insight

Japan's newly released Tokyo core CPI annual growth rate for the second quarter of 2026 reached 1.1%, rebounding from the previous 0.7%, but still falling short of the market consensus of 1.5%. Constrained by policy subsidies such as the waiver of water charges and a slowdown in food price increases, price momentum remains sluggish. It is expected that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) will turn cautious regarding further rate hikes in the short term.
