Japan's core CPI index excluding fresh food for Q3 2026 (latest data date: 2026-08-01) was 102.0, slightly down from the previous observation of 102.1. Under the new base period, the year-over-year growth rate reached 1.8%, in line with expectations. Driven by the phase-out of energy subsidies and the weak yen, inflationary pressure has expanded, further strengthening the market consensus for a central bank rate hike.
