Consumption and wage trends are closely watched by the BoJ. Japanese firms have agreed to raise wages by 5.25% this year, but real wage growth remains under pressure from elevated living costs. The BoJ is also monitoring the global outlook, including the potential fallout from Trump’s renewed tariff push. While markets currently expect the next BoJ rate hike in 2026, more data like today's could bring that timeline forward.

In the U.S., Trump spoke in Iowa late Thursday, signalling a potential shift on immigration. He said he’d be open to allowing migrants to stay if they’re vouched for by the farmers they work for — a notable softening that could ease labour shortages in agriculture.

Otherwise, it was a quiet session. Markets were subdued ahead of the U.S. holiday, and major FX pairs mostly stuck to narrow ranges.
