日本10月批发通胀升至7.1%超预期，强化日本央行12月加息预期
Japan wholesale inflation speeds up to 7.1%, beating forecasts and firming BoJ hike bets
Indeks harga korporasi Jepang naik 7,1% tahun-ke-tahun di bulan Oktober, lebih tinggi dari perkiraan 6,5% dan lebih tinggi dari 6,8% di bulan September; itu naik 0,7% bulan ke bulan, dibandingkan dengan perkiraan 0,3%. Minyak bumi, batu bara, bahan kimia, baja, dan utilitas umum merupakan pendorong utama. Produk pertanian turun 6,6% bulan ke bulan karena jatuhnya harga beras baru.
Japan's October corporate goods price index rebounded above expectations to 7.1%, with cost pressures spreading from energy, chemicals and steel to utilities, providing a firmer inflation basis for a BOJ December rate hike. For traders, the focus is on the disruption to yen carry trades from rising rate hike expectations, and on the potential for amplified FX volatility as the US-Japan monetary policy divergence narrows, while also watching the offsetting effect of falling agricultural prices on the overall inflation reading.
