追踪工厂产出、就业和零售额等关键数据的日本同步经济指标指数在2025年6月为116.7,略低于初步估计,但高于上月的116.0。最新数据为2月以来的最高水平,表明尽管美国贸易政策存在不确定性,但经济温和复苏。在就业和收入状况好转的支持下,该国的私人消费也有所加强,尽管成本压力依然存在,特别是来自大米价格飙升的压力。为了减轻负担,政府继续采取支持措施,包括增加从美国、泰国和中国的大米进口。与此同时,日本央行在6月份保持关键短期利率不变,在全球逆风中保持谨慎立场。
Japan’s index of coincident economic indicators—which tracks key data such as factory output, employment, and retail sales—stood at 116.7 in June 2025, a bit below the flash estimate but above 116.0 in the previous month. The latest reading was the highest since February, signaling a moderate recovery despite uncertainty stemming from U.S. trade policies. Private consumption in the country also strengthened, supported by firmer employment and income conditions, though cost pressures lingered, particularly from surging rice prices. To ease the burden, the government maintained support measures, including stepped-up rice imports from the U.S., Thailand, and China. Meanwhile, the Bank of Japan kept its key short-term interest rate unchanged in June, maintaining a cautious stance amid global headwinds.
