The Bank of Japan has decided to keep its short-term interest rate steady at 0.5%. This rate was bumped up to 0.5% from 0.25% back in January, marking the highest it’s been since 2008.

In their latest statement, the Bank of Japan outlines that the country’s economy is on a moderate recovery path, despite some lingering weaknesses. Consumer spending is gradually picking up, and inflation expectations are slowly on the rise. However, there’s an emphasis on remaining vigilant about how financial and foreign exchange market movements might affect the economy. It’s anticipated that underlying inflation will align with the BoJ’s price goals in the later part of the current three-year projection.

Interestingly, there is a prediction that inflation will meet the BoJ’s target in about a year and a half. It’s worth noting, though, for those expecting a firm stance from the Bank of Japan: this doesn’t really sound like the hawkish tone some yen enthusiasts might be hoping for. Yet, Japan’s Consumer Price Index has stayed around or above the 2% target for over a year now, which is something to consider.

There are additional insights to note. Both exports and industrial output in Japan are showing limited momentum. Nevertheless, the economy is expected to grow beyond its potential going forward. It’s important to be aware of the high level of uncertainty clouding the economic and price outlook. The main risks include global trade policies, and how these may affect international economies and inflation rates.

The full text of their statement provides more detail, but in immediate market responses, the USD/JPY pair has dipped slightly following the BoJ’s announcement.
