币界网报道：【Goldman Sachs: The Bank of Japan will continue to stay on hold, and the next rate hike will be in January next year】Coinjie.com reported that Goldman Sachs expects that economic activity and price indicators released since the April monetary policy meeting continue to show the strengthening of the virtuous cycle in Japan, but the impact of the tariff increase may be realized in the future. From a risk management perspective, under high uncertainty, the Bank of Japan is expected to keep its policy rate unchanged in June while maintaining its stance of gradual rate hikes. We maintain our base case, believing that the next policy rate hike is in January 2026. Regarding the Bank of Japan's mid-term assessment of the current Japanese government bond purchase reduction plan (as of March 2026), we expect the existing plan to remain unchanged. Thereafter, we expect the Bank of Japan to continue to reduce its purchases of government bonds, albeit at a slower pace, but within a year's time, the Bank of Japan will accelerate the reduction of its bond purchases to a level of around 2 trillion yen per month, which is the range of the Bank of Japan's response to a survey conducted in advance by market participants, and is also consistent with the level before the start of QQE.
