Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda's cautious approach to monetary policy, amid a weakened yen, could jeopardize the credibility of his normalization strategy. As the yen slips to a five-month low, Ueda's reluctance to raise interest rates despite encouraging economic indicators raises concerns among economists. Many analysts expected a rate hike following recent trends, yet Ueda signaled a possible postponement, which could compel him to act primarily to defend the yen rather than based on economic data, creating discord with his policy objectives.
