what happened

Japan's services producer price index climbed 0.3% in September compared with the previous month. RTT News reported the figure citing dpa-AFX, and it was distributed via TradingView.

In August the index had gained 0.1% month on month. The faster pace in September points to slightly higher costs in the services sector.

why it matters

Services producer prices are a useful gauge of inflation pressure in Japan and of expectations for Bank of Japan policy. Faster price growth can support the yen and tighten expectations, which feeds into JGB yields and the USD/JPY pair.
