According to a report by Mainichi Shimbun, Japanese Prime Minister (PM) Sanae Takaichi voiced concerns over the Bank of Japan’s (BoJ) intentions to hike interest rates further in her meeting with Governor Kazuo Ueda, which happened last week on February 16. The report also states that Takaichi’s reluctance to further BoJ hikes had weakened the Japanese Yen (JPY) against the US Dollar (USD) and the Euro (EUR).
