Viikoittainen markkinakatsaus (04.–08. joulukuuta) | Forexlive

BoJ Noguchi reiterated the central bank’s focus on
wage growth to reach their 2% target sustainably with no policy change in
näky:

• It’s true the impact
  of elevated global inflation is reaching Japan’s economy with consumer
  inflation exceeding the BoJ’s 2% target since the spring of 2022.
• But the rise (in
  inflation) is mostly due to cost-push factors amid higher import prices.
• To achieve our 2% inflation
  target, we must see price rises backed by sustained wage increases.
• While annual spring
  wage negotiations this year achieved wage hikes unseen in 30 years, we’ve
  only just reached a stage where the possibility of achieving our target
  has come into sight.

BoJ’s Himino just echoed
the other members’ comments with the usual focus on wage growth:

• BoJ will patiently
  maintain easy policy until sustained, stable achievement of price target
  is in sight.
• Japan’s financial
  system is likely resilient enough to weather stress from transition to
  korkeammat korot.

• If we do not get the
  timing exit procedures wrong, the impact of a positive wage-inflation
  cycle will likely benefit wide range of households, companies.

• Must make
  appropriate decision on exit timing, procedure by scrutinising wage,
  inflation developments.
• BoJ must achieve
  situation where inflation slows ahead, but not too much.

• Japan is seeing
  steadily changes in price, wage behaviour.

• Solid progress is
  observed in the transformation of firms’ wage- and price-setting
  käyttäytymistä.
• Hinta nousee
  beginning to affect wages.
• Pass-through from
  wages to inflation is also returning somewhat.
• Without virtuous
  cycle between wages and prices, Japan will most likely revert to the
  deflationary state in the past.

• When Japan returns
  to an economy with positive interest rate, that could improve households’
  balance as a whole.
• Jos inflaatio
  expectations have heightened, that would mean impact of rise in real
  interest rate could be smaller than that of nominal rate.

  that BoC “is prepared to raise the policy rate further if
  needed”.
• Data “suggest
  the economy is no longer in excess demand”.

  “further signs that monetary policy is moderating spending and relieving

the next step is rate cuts in 2024:

• Disinflation is
  happening more quickly than we thought.
• This is why, barring
  any shocks, there will not be any new rise in rates. The question of a
  rate cut could arise in 2024, but not right now.

BoJ Governor Ueda didn’t
say anything explicitly about an exit from the current easy policy BUT you can
clearly read between the lines that they are considering rate hikes:

• Japan’s economy to
  continue recovering moderately, supported mainly by accommodative
  financial conditions and effects of economic stimulus measures.
• Uncertainty over
  Japan’s economy extremely high.
• Closely watching the
  impact of financial, forex markets on the Japanese economy, prices.

• Will patiently
  continue monetary easing under YCC to support economic activity, cycle of
  palkkojen kasvu.

• It’ll become even
  more challenging towards the end of this year and into early 2024.

• BoJ has not made
  decision on which interest rate to target once we end negative interest
  rate policy.
• Vaihtoehtoihin kuuluu
  raising rate applied to financial institutions’ reserves at BoJ, or revert
  to policy targeting overnight call rate.

• Don’t have any
  specific idea in mind on how much we will raise rates once we end negative
  rate policy.

• Whether to keep
  interest rate at zero or move it up to 0.1%, and at what pace short-term
  rates will be hiked after ending negative rate policy, will depend on
  economic and financial developments at the time.
• Achieving 2% trend
  inflation can be defined as a state where economy, void of new shocks, can
  see inflation sustained around 2% and wage growth somewhat above that
  tasolla.
• Would be difficult
  to choose which monetary policy tools to mobilise when exit from stimulus
  lähestyy.
• BoJ to work closely
  with govt while monitoring currency, financial market moves.
• Service spending
  increasing moderately as a trend.
• Mikä on tärkeää
  from here is for wages to keep rising and underpin consumption.

  housing imbalances have serious consequences for shelter price inflation,

• Emphasized the need
