Japan's central bank is expected to continue its interest rate hike cycle despite the Liberal Democratic Party's recent electoral setback, which saw it lose its majority for the first time since 2009. Analysts believe that while political instability may delay hikes, sustained yen weakness could prompt action as early as December or January. The Bank of Japan's independence is seen as crucial, with expectations of corporate earnings growth supporting market optimism.
Japan's Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is projected to lose its parliamentary majority in the recent snap election, with exit polls indicating it may fall short even with its coalition partner, Komeito. The LDP, led by Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, faces challenges from rising inflation and internal corruption scandals, while opposition parties like the Constitutional Democratic Party and the Democratic Party for the People are expected to gain seats. If the predictions hold, this would mark the first loss of majority for the LDP since 2009.
