Bank of Japan holds benchmark rate unchanged at 1.25% at October meeting (29/30 October 2026, confirmed by BoJ press release or Bloomberg by 30 October 2026, 12:00 JST)

The BoJ meets October 29-30, 2026. The September 2026 hike (7-2 vote) to 1.25% — the highest since 1995 — leaves little room for an immediate follow-up raise. Market pricing: 83% probability of a hold. Additional brake: US September NFP +29K (vs. +90K consensus, released 2 Oct 2026) raises global growth uncertainty and strengthens the dovish BoJ faction. USD/JPY currently 157.83 (04.10.2026). The next hike to 1.50% is expected in December 2026 (separate Cassandra prediction).

Germany (Services PMI >52.0), Spain and Italy (Services PMI >54.5) show expansive sector data for September per open platform predictions.
