On December 11th, according to informed sources, officials of the Bank of Japan believe that it is not costly to raise interest rates later, and they are still open to taking action next week, depending on data and market trends.

They also said that if the December meeting proposed to raise interest rates, some officials would not object. According to people familiar with the matter, officials think it is only a matter of time to raise interest rates again, because the economy and inflation are in line with their forecasts.
