#BOJ #Japan #Rates #Debt The Bank of Japan kept rates unchanged at 0.75% on Friday after the December hike. Faster tightening is hard due to financial system risks. The vote was 8–1, with Takata pushing for an immediate hike. A renewed yen sell-off lifted the 2026 core inflation forecast to 2.2% (from 2.0%), pointing to more hawkish policy ahead. After recent stress, the JGB market stabilized—likely with BOJ support—as its bond holdings rose ¥0.7tn to ¥539.6tn in a week. Structural problems remain. Update: BOJ appears to have stepped in with yen intervention.
