BOJ Governor Ueda to Consider Middle East, AI, FX in Policy Decisions

Hyperdash NewsFX

Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda stated the central bank will focus on the impact of the Middle East conflict, AI demand, and foreign exchange rates when guiding policy. The BOJ will debate appropriate policy, including at its next meeting, while scrutinizing economic, price, and financial conditions. This indicates potential shifts in monetary policy.

This announcement follows recent pressure on the BOJ to raise interest rates. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent met with Ueda on Sunday and called for sound monetary policy to avoid excessive currency volatility. The yen has been near 160 per dollar, and Japan's 10-year government bond yield touched 3% on Tuesday, a 30-year high.

JPY/USD has moved +0.00% on Hyperdash since the news.
