- The Bank of Japan held rates at 0.75% in an 8-1 vote. Eight members voted to keep rates unchanged, while Takata was the sole dissenter pushing for a hike to 1.0%. His proposal signals growing hawkish pressure within the committee, as he argued the price stability target has been more or less achieved.
- The BoJ confirmed it will keep raising rates if the economy and prices align with forecasts. Wages and prices are expected to rise together, which is the exact condition needed to justify further tightening.
- Rising crude oil prices from the Middle East conflict add uncertainty, but also risk re-accelerating inflation. Takata’s dissent suggests the next hike is a matter of when, not if.
