The Nikkei 225 Index is experiencing a bull run, reaching ¥62,836 with a year-to-date gain of 16.67%. This surge is attributed to Softbank's rising stock price and the potential for a US-Iran deal, which could positively impact Japan's energy imports. The index is also benefiting from a global stock market rally and the AI boom, with Softbank heavily investing in AI. Technical analysis suggests the index could reach nearly ¥69,000, while a drop below ¥58,000 would negate this bullish outlook.

BoJ Deputy Governor Ryozo Himino stated that Japan is not currently in stagflation but warned that a prolonged Middle East conflict could create stagflation-like conditions. He highlighted a policy dilemma of weaker growth versus rising inflation and emphasized a data-dependent approach for future policy adjustments. Himino noted that while inflation is around the 2% target and growth remains stable, the uncertainty from external shocks could complicate decision-making. The BoJ aims to maintain its inflation target while remaining flexible in response to evolving economic conditions.
