Headline inflation jumped to 3.7% year-on-year in September, its highest level since May. Rising gasoline and diesel prices drove much of the increase. Higher airfares and used-car prices added pressure, pushing monthly inflation to 0.6%, the biggest gain since May. Even excluding food and energy, the picture deteriorated. Core inflation rose to 2.6%, up from 2.4% in August and above expectations. The squeeze on households is clear: prices rose 3.7% over the past year, outpacing average wage growth of 3%.

Sugar prices rose for the 3rd straight month, up 6.1%, and cereal prices jumped 5.1% as Black Sea and Strait of Hormuz disruptions choke off supply. If this keeps up, economies depending on imported food and energy are in real danger.

The Bank of Japan reaffirmed that it will continue raising interest rates as growth and inflation evolve. Yet the yen weakened immediately after the announcement. The market’s verdict was clear: 25 basis points is not enough. Even with the policy rate now at 1.25%, the interest-rate differential remains wide—and so does the incentive to borrow in yen and invest in higher-yielding currencies. If Japan wants to support the yen without hiking more aggressively, it may have to return to FX intervention: selling dollar assets and using its reserves to buy yen. But intervention only buys time. It does not solve the underlying rate gap. The longer the BOJ waits to close that gap, the more aggressive future rate hikes may ultimately need to be. Key details: 1. BOJ voted 7-2 in favour of raising interest rates to 1.25%. 2. BOJ warns underlying inflation could rise above its 2% target. 3. Inflation pressure is spreading from producer prices into consumer prices. 4. Inflation expectations continue to rise. 5. Wage increases are increasingly being passed into selling prices. 6. Weak yen, higher oil prices and strong AI-related demand are adding inflation pressure. 7. Japan’s economy is still recovering moderately, supported by employment, income growth and AI-related demand. 8. CPI is expected to accelerate clearly above 2% from the second half of FY2026. 9. BOJ still says financial conditions remain accommodative despite the hike. 10. Future hikes will depend on economic activity, prices and financial conditions. Governor Ueda’s remarks will be closely watched for clues on the timing and pace of further hikes.
