Japan's repeated interventions to support the yen may provide temporary relief, but deep structural economic pressures and global instability are likely to keep the currency weak. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/editorials/2026/05/08/japan-pulls-stops-yen-slide/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #editorials #boj #federalreserve #centralbanks #kazuoueda #yen #forex #oil #iran #us #energy #japaneseeconomy

The Bank of Japan held rates steady at 0.75% despite the weak yen as the war in Iran remains a factor. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/04/28/economy/boj-meeting-april-2026/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #negativeinterestrates #gdp #inflation #banks #kazuoueda

Japan does not lack qualified candidates to be the BOJ governor; what it lacks is a public institutional process capable of recognizing them. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/04/24/japan/choosing-boj-governor/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #boj #federalreserve #centralbanks #kazuoueda #jeromepowell #fed #europeancentralbank

Bank of Japan officials are likely to consider raising their inflation forecast sharply at their policy meeting this month, mainly to reflect elevated oil prices, according to people familiar with the matter. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/04/15/economy/bank-of-japan-price-outlook/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #japaneseeconomy #oil #iran #middleeast #kazuoueda

Bank of Japan Gov. Kazuo Ueda said economic and price developments were moving roughly in line with the bank's forecasts. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/04/13/ueda-boj-middle-east/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #iran #middleeast #boj #kazuoueda

Economic policymakers are about to gather in Washington to assess the damage Donald Trump's war on Iran has caused to growth in the Middle East and beyond. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/04/12/economy/world-finance-imf-deja-vu/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #imf #kristalinageorgieva #boj #kazuoueda #economy #economicindicators #us #donaldtrump #middleeast #iran #straitofhormuz #oil

Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda maintains that Japan's financial conditions remain accommodative despite recent rate hikes, citing negative real interest rates supporting gradual growth in private capital investment amid concerns over fiscal spending's impact on market rates.

The Bank of Japan kept its policy interest rate unchanged at its March meeting, with Gov. Kazuo Ueda citing the situation in the Middle East — which is fueling economic uncertainty — as the reason behind the decision. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/03/19/economy/boj-maintain-rate/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #middleeast #oil #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #wages #inflation

The government expects its interest payments on outstanding debt to roughly double over the next four years as the Bank of Japan’s gradual rate hikes push up borrowing costs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/26/interest-payment-double-2029/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #financeministry #boj #kazuoueda #sanaetakaichi

A meeting between Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Bank of Japan Gov. Kazuo Ueda was most notable for what might not have been said, as a lack of pressure signaled the central bank's independence. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/16/markets/ueda-takaichi-meeting/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #sanaetakaichi #boj #kazuoueda

Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi expects the Bank of Japan to raise its policy interest rate in the near future, but not this spring, Etsuro Honda, an economic adviser to the Japanese leader, said in a recent interview. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/14/economy/takaichi-boj-rate-hike/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #sanaetakaichi #interestrates #kazuoueda #inflation #yen #currencies

The Bank of Japan has left rates unchanged ahead of a February election after raising them last month to 0.75% from 0.5%. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/23/markets/boj-meeting-jan-2026/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #us #boj #economicindicators #jgb #bonds

Most Bank of Japan watchers believe Gov. Kazuo Ueda and his colleagues have been slow in ratcheting up interest rates, and they expect the next move will still be several months away in their base case scenarios. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/16/economy/boj-rate-hike-july/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #boj #yen #inflation #sanaetakaichi

Not reaffirming the principle of central bank independence when it is visibly under strain in the U.S. sends the wrong message. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/01/15/japan/silence-wont-protect-boj/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #boj #interestrates #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #monetarypolicy

The Bank of Japan's absence from a list of central banks lining up to support Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell reflects its aversion to politics and the government's reluctance to cross the United States. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/15/economy/boj-absence-fed-powell-support/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #federalreserve #jeromepowell #donaldtrump #sanaetakaichi #kazuoueda

Japanese investors sold the most U.K. sovereign bonds in 14 years in November, with concern over Britain’s fiscal outlook and higher yields in the domestic market sapping demand for gilts. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/13/markets/japanese-funds-sell-uk-bonds/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #uk #bonds #bankofengland #bankofjapan #kazuoueda

Bank of Japan Gov. Kazuo Ueda used his first public appearance in the new year to underscore his intention to keep raising the benchmark rate in a speech to private bankers. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/05/economy/boj-interest-rates/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #kazuoueda #japaneseeconomy #yen

A summary of the Bank of Japan’s most recent meeting hints of further rate hikes, with some board members noting that the country’s real interest rate remains very low. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/29/economy/bank-of-japan-december-meeting/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #japaneseeconomy #inflation #kazuoueda

Bank of Japan’s Ueda signaled that further interest hikes are likely coming next year, by projecting rising confidence that the central bank is closer to attaining its sustainable price target. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/25/economy/boj-ueda-speech-rate-hike/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #kazuoueda #boj #japaneseeconomy #keidanren

BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda reaffirmed that adjusting monetary easing will support Japan’s long-term growth, signaling further rate hikes if economic and inflation conditions allow, as the 2% inflation target comes into view and wage growth broadens.

Despite lifting rates to a three-decade high, the Bank of Japan is signaling a cautious, gradual path toward further hikes while insisting policy remains accommodative. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/12/24/japans-rate-milestone-just-step/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #boj #fed #interestrates #monetarypolicy #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda

Japan’s bond rout continues after the BOJ’s rate increase and as a record-busting budget approval looms, and the yen has been weak despite the higher yields. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/22/markets/japanese-bond-rout/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #us #boj #economicindicators #jgb #bonds

The Bank of Japan has taken its policy rate to 0.75% — a 30-year high — in its first increase since January. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/19/economy/boj-meeting-dec-2025/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #japaneseeconomy #kazuoueda #us #boj #interestrates

The Bank of Japan’s anticipated rate hike on Friday could weigh on companies’ ability to raise wages in the coming fiscal year, says the head of Japan’s auto workers union. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/17/companies/japan-auto-union-chair-wages/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #carmakers #wages #boj #ratehike #kazuoueda #confederationofjapanautomobileworkersunions #akihirokaneko

The Japanese central bank is reportedly likely to raise its policy interest rate to around 0.75% from around 0.5% at present at its two-day monetary policy meeting through Friday this week. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/12/14/economy/japan-finance-chief-rate-hike/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #economy #boj #monetarypolicy #japaneseeconomy #satsukikatayama #kazuoueda
