Japan's latest Corporate Goods Price Index (PPI) for Q2 2026 rose to 135.4, continuing to set a historical record high compared to the previous value of 134.5. Battered by surging energy prices triggered by geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and the sharp depreciation of the yen, import costs have increased significantly. The market expects this trend to greatly elevate the probability of further interest rate hikes by the Bank of Japan.
