Maeda said, "I expect the next rate hike to be in December, followed by another hike in March or April next year. Currently, the pace of rate hikes has accelerated to approximately once every three months, which I think is appropriate." This assessment largely aligns with market expectations. Maeda indicated that he does not completely rule out the possibility of the BOJ raising interest rates consecutively at consecutive monetary policy meetings in the future, such as if the yen depreciates significantly. However, he believes this possibility is currently unlikely. Maeda stated, "If the BOJ announces rate hikes at two consecutive meetings, the market may increasingly tend to expect further rate hikes at the next meeting, which would pose a considerable risk. Therefore, the BOJ has reason to avoid raising interest rates at consecutive meetings."A spokesperson for the Saudi-led coalition said that four drones launched toward Saudi Arabia have been intercepted and destroyed.
