Recent softening in Japan's core CPI readings, with the measure easing to 1.4% YoY in April 2026 from 1.8% in March, has tempered expectations for the full-year 2026 average while the Bank of Japan continues policy normalization. The June 16 rate hike to 1%—the highest since 1995—reflects concerns over yen weakness and energy-driven upside risks, even as BOJ staff projections for fiscal 2026 core inflation hover near 1.9%. Market-implied odds across the 2.0-2.9% and adjacent bands remain tightly matched near 50% because traders weigh persistent underlying pressures from import costs against the recent disinflation trend and moderating food prices. Key swing factors include further yen depreciation, crude oil volatility tied to geopolitical tensions, wage settlement outcomes, and upcoming monthly CPI releases that could shift the annual trajectory before year-end resolution.

The resolution source for this market will be the SBJ Consumer Price Index Annual Report released for 2026 (https://www.stat.go.jp/english/data/cpi/1588.html#nen), currently scheduled to be released on January 22, 2027. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data.
Note: the resolution source for this market will be the official SBJ Consumer Price Index Annual Report, which reports percentage change in the Consumer Price Index over 12-month periods to only one decimal point (e.g., 2.8%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. For the avoidance of doubt, this market resolves on the core CPI figure — the all items index excluding fresh food — not the headline all items CPI figure.
If the SBJ does not release the relevant figures on the scheduled date, this market may remain open up until March 31, 2027. If the information is not released by that time, this market will resolve to the lowest bracket.
