Bank of Japan rate hike exposes cracks in Bessent's facade
TOKYO – Two words sprang to mind when the Bank of Japan lifted its policy rate to a 31-year high of 1.25% on Friday: Scott Bessent.
No, the US Treasury secretary didn't cause the 25-basis-point increase announced by Governor Kazuo Ueda. The BOJ was responding to a far more pressing reality: inflation continues to outpace economic growth.
Consumer prices are rising at a 1.9% annual rate while GDP expanded just 0.4% quarter-on-quarter in the April-June period. Had Ueda's board stood pat, or signaled that further tightening was off the table, it would have risked provoking a bond market backlash.
