The lower wages rate had diminished the household\u2019s purchasing power in Japan. According to Statistics Bureau, Japan Household Spending dipped significantly from the previous reading of -0.6% to -1.3%, missing the market forecast at 1.6% while jeopardizing the economic momentum in the Japan region. Nonetheless, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has urged Japanese firms, whose profits have recovered to pre-pandemic levels to increase wages rate by 3% or more, aiming to achieve a cycle of growth and wealth distribution.\u00a0 Market participants speculated that the raising wages expectation would create higher inflation risk in future, dragging down the appeal for the Japanese Yen.
