This result was mainly influenced by the government's implementation of energy price subsidy policies, aiming to alleviate the pressure of energy costs on overall prices. Nonetheless, this rate of increase was slightly above the market expectation of 2.3% but lower than the previous month's 2.8%.

After the data release, the yen briefly strengthened, reflecting a positive market reaction to the easing inflation. However, the U.S. dollar's strength in the global foreign exchange markets remains evident, with the dollar-yen exchange rate previously breaking through the 150 mark.
