Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said her government will avoid fiscal policies that risk pushing inflation excessively higher. The remark signals fiscal restraint from Tokyo, though the statement carried no specific figures on spending, deficits or debt. It matters because Japan carries the largest government debt load among major economies, and investors have questioned whether expanded stimulus could lift long-term yields and pressure the yen. Watch upcoming budget and stimulus details, along with JGB yields and yen moves, for confirmation of how firmly the government intends to hold that line.
