Recent readings show Japan's core-core CPI (excluding fresh food and energy) moderating to 1.7% in June 2026 from earlier 2026 levels near 2.4%, reflecting energy subsidies and base effects that have kept headline and core measures below the Bank of Japan's 2% target. Trader sentiment remains closely divided between the 2.0-2.4% and ≤1.9% buckets because BOJ projections anticipate underlying inflation rising to around 2.2% for fiscal 2026 amid wage growth and imported cost pressures from a weak yen and elevated oil prices tied to Middle East developments. Key swing factors include the pace of producer price pass-through, further BOJ rate decisions, and any extension of fiscal support measures that could cap the annual outcome.

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-core CPI figure — the all items index excluding fresh food and energy — 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.
