BOJ DROPS A NEW CPI WEAPON FOR $JPYBank of Japan will begin publishing a monthly Core CPI Reference Index to strip out noise and spotlight underlying inflation pressure, signaling it wants markets focused on “real” price momentum rather than subsidy-distorted data. The move reinforces the BOJ’s tight-policy stance even as Japan’s core CPI slips below 2% and political pressure builds for no change in rates.
