BOJ members see inflation nearing target, yet warn an oil shock could revive deflation
June's BOJ policy-board opinions say underlying inflation should reach a level broadly consistent with the price target between the second half of the year ending March 2027 and the following year, even though recent year-on-year CPI has been below 2%, while the economy keeps drawing support from strong AI-related demand, solid wage gains and high corporate profits. The caution is the interesting part: members said Middle East-linked supply shocks could still hit production and employment hard enough to break the wage-price cycle and, in a worst case, send Japan back into deflation, even as faster business-to-business price pass-through could push underlying inflation above 2%. It is not a policy vote, but it is a clean map of the BOJ's two-sided risk problem.

Japan sells global financiers on growth spending, keeps new finance plan broad
Finance and Financial Services Minister Satsuki Katayama told the IMC Tokyo audience that nominal GDP has topped ¥600 trillion and wages have risen more than 5% for three straight years, while promising responsible public finances and a broader financial-services strategy. The useful caveat: the speech supplied the narrative, not the operating manual.
