Japan’s Higher Price Level and a Weaker Yen Renew Global Macro Pressure

Japan’s OECD consumer price index rose to 112.90 in January 2026 from 101.30 in June 2021, a cumulative increase of 11.45%. At the same time, USD/JPY climbed to 159.54 on March 13 from 157.64 a week earlier, highlighting renewed pressure on import costs and household purchasing power. When a weaker yen arrives on top of an already higher price level, it matters not only for Japan but also for global views on inflation, rates, trade, and markets.
