Japan Reluctantly Raises Rates, USD/JPY Strengthens Rapidly
Dec 19, 2025, 20:02 GMT+7

USDJPY
−0,22%
Seputarforex - The Bank of Japan today (12/December) raised its benchmark interest rate as per consensus expectations. However, USD/JPY actually surged more than one percent to a one-month high of 157.40. The Yen also plummeted against the Euro, Pound Sterling, and other major currencies.

The Bank of Japan's interest rate hike (BoJ) today is not surprising. Market participants have already factored in the prospect of a 25 basis point cut from 0.50% to 0.75% long ago. Therefore, the BoJ's announcement actually triggered the "buy the rumour, sell the fact" phenomenon regarding its currency.

The depreciation of the Yen accelerated after the press conference of BoJ Governor Kazuo Ueda. This is because Ueda was unwilling to provide clear guidance regarding the timing and pace of interest rate hikes next year.

The report on the BoJ meeting results did not provide any new insights either. They maintained their forecast that core inflation will approach the 2% target between the end of the fiscal year 2026 and 2027. They acknowledged that real interest rates are still at a very low level, but reiterated that they will only continue to tighten monetary policy if the economy and inflation meet expectations.
