Japan’s 10-year government bond yield hovered around 2.41% on Friday, moving sideways for a third straight session as Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda offered no clear guidance on interest rates ahead of the central bank’s upcoming policy decision. Ueda highlighted the difficult policy balance between upside risks to inflation and downside risks to economic growth. Ahead of the previous two rate hikes, Ueda had provided clearer signals to prepare markets, and investors had been watching for a similar cue before geopolitical tensions in the Middle East escalated. Still, the BOJ is expected to raise its inflation forecasts at this month’s meeting, reflecting higher energy prices. Separately, the IMF said the BOJ could look through inflation stemming from the Iran conflict, arguing that its impact on underlying price pressures is likely to remain limited and should not derail the central bank’s gradual tightening path.
