Monetary policy divergence between the Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan remains the dominant driver for USD/JPY in 2026. The BOJ has normalized its policy rate to around 1.0 percent amid entrenched inflation above its 2 percent target, solid wage growth, and tight labor markets, with further hikes signaled for later in the year. This contrasts with expectations for steady or lower U.S. rates, compressing the yield differential that has supported dollar strength. The pair has recently traded near 159, with analyst year-end forecasts spanning 150 to 164 depending on the pace of BOJ tightening versus U.S. data outcomes. Key near-term catalysts include upcoming U.S. CPI releases and BOJ communications that could accelerate or delay yen appreciation.
