Japan’s BoJ Core Inflation Slows to 2.3%
Japan’s inflation pressures showed further signs of easing, with the Bank of Japan’s core consumer price index rising 2.3% year-over-year, down from 2.6% previously.
The decline suggests underlying inflation momentum is moderating, although the measure remains above the Bank of Japan’s 2% inflation target.
